Annoying Data Noise

I use a MOTU Traveler as a an audio interface (IEEE 1394). My card is a TI chip firewire interface. Never any noticable problems until recently.

As of late, I hear the faint sound of what sounds like a data stream come through my KRK powered speakers several times a day. I know that this used to be a problem with laptop USB interfaces years ago. Any idea of the cause or the solution to clearing this annoyance up?

I'll give you 99% certainty it's a smartphone interfering.

At a musical premiere, I muted my phone and laid it on top of my keyboard amp.
Its the kind of lesson one never forgets.
