Laptops beeping after update when connected to multiple monitors and docking station
We are having multiple models of laptops when they go to sleep while connected to docking station and multiple monitors beep like something is connecting/disconnecting. This only happens when the laptop is asleep and connected to more than one monitor through a docking station. It doesn't do it with only one monitor nor if it's not connected to a docking station. We have the S3 sleep mode turned off (BIOS setting on), turned off USB powershare, installed all windows updates for 25H2, and the latest BIOS updates. Models include Latitude 5430, 7680, and Precision 3571, 3581, 3591, we have not seen the issue on the Pro Max 16's.

A little more information on our side: The laptop doesn't have to be asleep. It happens when you lock the Windows screen.

We are also experiencing this issue.
Affected models:
Latitude 7440Latitude 7450
Pro Max 14
All affected devices are on Windows 11 Enterprise, 25H2 version. BIOS 2.7.4.
The monitors being used are P2725HE with the docking stations built in. We're also seeing this on the WD22TB4 docking stations. As mentioned by other posts, this is only happening when a second display is connected to the docking station.0

We found a workaround. Not ideal, but it has worked for us. Our monitors have cameras and soundbars plugged into them. It appears to be happening when the monitors go to sleep.
So, we set the monitors to never go to sleep.
In Settings: Click "Personalize" > Click "Lock screen" > Click "Screen timeout" > Click "Screen, sleep & hibernate timeouts" then set both to "Never"
Hope this helps!

We began having this issue on most of our Latitude 3520s towards the beginning of the December and we think we narrowed it down to the latest Intel Graphics driver 32.0.101.7077 update as we started noticing the issue the day after it was applied. Also in the Windows event log you can see events related to the Intel graphics software about the resetting the graphics controller.
