I'm getting a similar problem in Intrepid x86_64 using pulseaudio and 
compiz-fusion together. It is most noticeable while watching any kind of video 
in totem-xine, but occurs in other programs. It does not occur when compiz is 
inactive. It is not related to cellular interference. It is not due to lack of 
resources, as I get the same problem when compiz runs with no features enabled. 
I've tried giving compiz a nice level of 19, but either the schedule doesn't 
care or it isn't a scheduling problem as I suspected. 
Are there any matching bugs for this? I've been googling, but it's hard to 
piece together all the various big reports of buzzy audio. I think any reports 
of this should be inspected for involvement with compiz.

Other possibly contributing factors (top suspects on my system):
amd64 architecture
fglrx
pulseaudio configuration
Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 & USB audio (simultaneous output)

Also, I would say the buzzing is not entirely random, although it is
without pattern. Buzzes happen at nearly the same time as the last when
I replay audio or video files. Games are less predictable, but it seems
to me that a certain range of frequencies may buzz more often than
others (can't tell you what they are though as it seems to be several
different kinds of sounds) or the buzzing occurs at certain bitrates of
audio more than others). A buffering problem perhaps?
