Title:
  [DL-H61MXEL, Realtek ALC888, Green Line Out, Rear] Underruns, dropouts
  or crackling sound

Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When the output volume is set near 100% and a sound is playing, volume
  level alternates too fast. Sometimes it goes to mute.

  I watched System Settings > Sound and found that sound output device
  is alternating between 'Analog Output -Built-in Audio' and 'Headphones
  - Built-in Audio'. The switching is too frequent and introduces
  glitches in output.

  By default output device is 'Analog Output - Built-in Audio'.
