I just encountered this bug for the first time after upgrading from 12.04 to 14.04. My old Turtle Beach Santa Cruz card worked fine before, but after the upgrade I started to get distortion and crackling.
hoocker's suggestion in #96 seems to have fixed it! Or at least, greatly reduced it.

Audio was perfect prior to that update. The output will vary from normal, to crackling, to distorted, to the stuck "machine-gun" sound if and only if I change the audio volume up and down. This is the same across all sound sources. Audio card is cs46xx based hercules game theater XP. Running latest Karmic.
