If the setting is "normal" or "no-loopback", and the status says "AC/Home", then the AC-Power jack on the empeg is b0rked and should get replaced.

Otherwise it might have something to do with the hard drive failure.

This behaviour is seen in when docked in the car, so it shouldn't be the jack -- I'll check to make sure.
