You might want to try a clean installation and the workaround suggested on http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=331172
As root (sudo, su, however you prefer to get there), edit the file /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base and add this line to the end of the file: options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1 Then reboot. Please note that recent updates (applied between June 15, when I first did the above, and June 22), caused the file to disappear - its entire contents were copied to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf. When this happened, I was back to choppy sound. I restored sound by sudo cp -p /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base and rebooting.
