Sounds to me like you may have a faulty switch (dusty, perhaps) or wiring. Maybe a soldering joint pulled loose during installation (if you installed it yourself). Is this in an active wiring or passive? The piezo elements of the powerbridge itself are unlikely to cause the "snowstorm" sound. If you have the powerchip circuitry installed as well, it might be related to that - even a low-voltage effect from a less-than-fully-charged battery.
@nickelroundwounds I replaced the powerchip and all was well. Never did figure out what the deal was with it. I tried everything in the book before that to no avail. It was a stock installation on this particular Cort guitar. They do sound great when they work!
