Public bug reported: After first install of Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS on brand-new HP Zbook 15 G2 I wanted to listen to music. Sound works. However, there is a constant, quite strong very annoying noise.
This noise appears only when I use headphones. And the volume of this noise seems to be independent of the volume I chooses on the system. It is there permanently. (it's really annoying, making this perfect machine unusable in this regard) I am using the normal analog 3.5mm headset port on the right hand side. I can confirm, that it is not a problem of the headphones, I tested it with 3 different ones. Same result. Annoying noise. It seems to be a mix of white noise and some other varying frequencies. Also, if I run the volume all the way down to mute, the noise stops. (which seems to confirm a software/driver problem right?) HP claims to support Ubuntu 14.04 on this brand-new workstation !
