Public bug reported: Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Release: 12.04
Problem is in alsa-driver 1.0.24 I expected the sound to be as good as it was in Ubuntu 10.04, which is also installed on this computer, but get crackles overlaid on the sound at random intervals, especially bad if there is a lot of screen activity (e.g. watching an MP4 file in Totem, or using Skype with video).
