Sound pops and clicks - XAudio2

I have to play different quadrangular waves of 12.5%, 25%, 50% and 75% duty cycle to create melodies. So far I have been able to get melodies right but one problem exist and that is when I try to start and stop the sound, it gives me nasty pops and clicks sound. The program has to start and stop the sound quite a lot so there is lot of pops and clicks. One way I have found to get rids of these pops and clicks is by instead of starting and stopping the sound, I just start it once and then change the volume, if I am starting the sound I change the volume to 1 and if I am stopping the sound I change the volume to 0. This method works but I am not sure if this is a good or the right method to stop sound. So, can anyone tell me how I can get rid of pops and clicks when I am starting and stopping sound? Thanks!!!
