Faulty power supply or lack of a ground connection to the wall outlet, and/or wall outlet itself not properly grounded. If this is the case, you definitely DO NOT want to ground yourself, or you could get a bad shock. (Granite should be a good insulator, so if you are getting a slight shock sitting on granite,it could be much worse depending on what the voltage is.
It's plugged into my computer via the audio jack. Obviously my CPU case is not grounded at all and I have no idea how to, it's also put on top of the granite floor. I'm having a good idea how this is happening though, thanks guys.
A piece of rubber should suffice when/if I want to adjust the headset though, right?
