Whats going on here is that in the Touch are two DACs, one connected to the RCA jacks (the "hi-fi" DAC) and one connected to the internal speaker which produces the bleeps and blurps ect, (the "effects" DAC). Normally there is a separate jive-alsa process just for the effects channel, this is a rather big waste of resources and interrupts etc, so TT2.0 disables that separate process, but that means there is no place for the effects noises to go, so they wind up getting routed to the main system along with the music. The problem is that the effects noises are at a lower sample rate so when they get played on the main channel they cause all kinds of crackling etc because they are at a different sample rate than the music.
As has been mentioned the solution is just to turn off all effect sounds.
