There are at least two ways in which this can happen:
1. Each mouse action or movement causes a brief burst of data bits on the
mouse cord. It's possible that this passes close enough to the sound card
to induce a small current in the circuitry just before the amplifier.
2. Received keyboard and mouse events go into a buffer of pending input
messages, which will hold 15 of them. The system will "chirp" if there are
already 15 waiting events, and no room to add the latest signal to the
buffer. (This almost never happens, unless the process that should be
reading events from the buffer has crashed or hung.)
