This is an issue with pulse audio that affects multimedia. There's no proper fix as far as I know.
I also have a 780G motherboard, and I experienced the same thing. I ended up simply replacing pulse with alsa, and now my multimedia plays stutter free. Not optimal, but it works as intended.
sudo apt-get purge libcanberra-pulse pulseaudio pulseaudio-esound-compat pulseaudio-module-bluetooth pulseaudio-module-gconf pulseaudio-module-udev pulseaudio-module-x11 gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio pulseaudio-utils pavucontrol
sudo apt-get install gnome-alsamixer alsa-oss python-alsaaudio
Check out this PPA if you want to restore some functionality like media key volume control etcetera:

Do a forum search for sound problems as we have a fantastic, comprehensive thread on just that. Clearly the problems lies in not having properly configured your sound (yet).
