Does your system have the rotary knob on the front to select the source?

You could try some adhesive, like a piece of Scotch tape, stick it to the button, then pull outward slightly and see if the problem stops. If it does, I'd go to a place like Radio Shack and get some Contact Cleaner or a Compressed Air Duster and carefully spray it into the side of the button or apply the hose from a vacuum cleaner over the button to see if that will solve the problem.
