I recently upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 (9.04 support just ran out). Ideally, I'd upgrade further to 10.04 or 10.10, but I am somewhat bandwidth limited, and so the additional 1.5GB upgrade to 10.04 is a last resort.
After upgrading, I picked up a nice crackling sound. It seems to be tied to activity. Typing up this post resulted in a few crackling sounds a minute, but scrolling up or down, resizing windows, or doing anything more intensive (such as listening to music), and the frequency picks up.
lspci lists two audio devices:
00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA)
01:00.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc HD48x0 audio
Though I believe the second one is for a port on my video card, and thus the first one seems to be the one actually in use.
If it matters at all, I'm running 64-bit, and am currently dual booting with Arch Linux (which has its own audio issues, and I was putting off tracking down because Ubuntu worked fine).
Thank you for any help you can provide.
