[Elecraft] muting audio on PSK

tnx for all the responses
I have a pair of stereo speakers connected to the back of the K3. I also have a 
Yamaha headset connected, both the speakers and headset are always active. This 
setup allows me to monitor from across the room and also to rapidly access the 
headset when necessary. Obviously I do not need audio for PSK. Received audio is 
easily silenced by setting audio gain to zero, but transmit audio is always 
present regardless of the Power setting. The MON=0 and the audio is produced in 
the k3 not the computer.
I use a pair of stereo cables from the I/O on the back of the rig to the (audio) 
I/O on the laptop

1)  Are you sure it's coming out of the K3 and not the sound card?

2)  Does transmitter power affect it?
