The default mid-level PLL bias current setting interferes with sigma
delta modulation. This manifests as decreased audio quality at lower
sampling rates, which sounds like radio broadcast quality, and
distortion noises at sampling rates at 48 kHz or above.
Changing the bias current settings to the lowest gets rid of the
noise.

for audio PLL")
