or maybe I just have to unplug it rather than switch it off When you turn it off, and leave it in Line mode, and have an audio feed to the Line such as from a VCR, you can hear the audio real silently coming thru it, so there is a good chance the on/off button only does a standby mode. With there still being sound this seems likely. If the magnetism is strong it may take two weeks of switching off overnight to visibly reduce it and once or twice a week after that to keep it gone.
