Most of these issues are gone for me with the latest natty updates. But every so often pulseaudio screws up. I don't get the rattling sound anymore, but what I do get is this weird high pitch gurgling noise. The only way I can describe it is that noise you hear on TV when your watching a show about war and a granade goes off and deafens someone and they play that loud high pitch noise. It sounds a bit like that. Killing pulseaudio and playing the file again fixes it. If I had to have an educated guess on what it's doing i'd say it's something to do with the sample rates of the playback going awry or something.
It's very annoying when other's are on the computer with you, it just makes Ubuntu/Linux look bad. Obviously, all sound still breaks completely if I so much as touch the balance/volume/subwoofer sliders in the sound preferences. I don't think anyone on earth actually understands how this crappy code works. It makes me scared to ever try SystemD. That's gonna be pulseaudio 2.0.
