What is the current sound for usb device or USB device failed to initialise.
I have found if you set the settings in some configs, these errors do not
generate the text but still make a noise. I use non standard noises but
maybe its something similar to that, wiggle you usb devices about in the
sockets. I had a sticky caps lock key once that made a sound like that but
it was multiple not just one offs like your recording.

My W10/64 Pro desktop computer emits a strange squawking noise from time

quick succession.

Each instance is short and sharp, and lasts about 300mS. It is
definitely coming through the audio system rather than being (say) a
disk bearing because its volume depends on the volume control setting,
and I have been able to record it by setting the recording input as
"Stereo Mix".

I assume that some application or other is trying to tell me something,
but it's never accompanied by any message or notification on the screen,
and I can't find anything in the error logs. In addition, I can't find
any system sound which sounds like this.

I shall be most grateful if someone can put me put me out of my misery
and tell me what's likely to be causing it.

It's not a key temporarily sticking down, is it?
