Your default card is a HDA-Intel?

For your soundblaster I found a hint at [0]: 

"Not all features on all models supported. On the VX, white noise on playback
unless initialized in Windows first. One quirky (but permanent) workaround is
to enable the old oss modules, specifically the 100% sound blaster compatible
module (sb). You don't have to load the oss modules. The alsa module snd-ca0106
works fine somehow if the old sb module is compiled in the kernel as a module
(no white noise)."

You`re running stable. So your drivers are provided since ages and there is no
bug reported like yours, though. I don't have a CA0106 based soundcard handy,
so I can't reproduce..
