If your Dac is self powered, cut the red / red + black wire in the Usb cable, this got rid of noise for me. Of course make sure it's a cheap usb cable. Since I have upgraded my motherboard to one with a usb power disable feature (Gigabyte Z87 G1 Sniper) has worked wonders and I no longer hear noise.
I've tried that, now I'm getting a single frequency from my comp, it plays music, but the external sound is extremely annoying.
It stops after a while when I'm not playing music, but starts once I play something.
