Sometimes, when I turn on my Privia PX-5s, I will be playing around while it loads up, and when it finally does, the sustain pedal, instead of "sustaining", actually dampens, and without pressing any pedals, the keys are all automatically sustained? Is there any reason for this, could this be a short, or an issue with my keyboard. Usually if I turn it off and back on again it resets to normal with the keys working fine, and pressing the sustain pedal elongating the notes. Also, I have two pedals plugged in, one for the sustain and the other for the damper, not sure if this helps. Thanks you!

I'm trying to use some speakers from my computer, and was wondering if this stage piano can get sound from just plugging in a normal 3.5 mm audio plug-in, or is the only way to get sound output is to use an 1/4 " adapter, and plug it in from the headphone jack? I hope this question makes sense, so any help will be greatly appreciate. Essentially, to clarify, my goal is to find a workaround, from using a 1/4 " adapter, and just use instead the 3.5 mm cables, since that is what all my headphones, speakers, etc are in, and the only port those plug into is the "audio in". Thanks!
