Bug Description
Binary package hint: pulseaudio
After upgrade to Karmic I experience regular crackling sound coming out of my speakers. This can occur for example every minute or so, it makes a short "crack!" sound. *Also the crackle occurs every time I mute or unmute system sound.*
But this problem does not occur everytime. Mostly everything works smoothly. But last time I resumed my suspended notebook the crackling appeared (no crackling before). I rebooted - crackling still there. Rebooted again - all fine. A few days without crackling went by. Now I booted my notebook (clean boot, no resume) and it crackles again. I suppose I can get rid of it by rebooting (once or more), but that very annoying.
I tried to "killall pulseaudio" when in crackling state, it didn't help, still there. I tried to log out and log in as another user. It didn't help, it crackled on login screen and in other user' session.

Ok, so the crackle is not probably exactly regular, but it's very often after some beep occurs (IM beep, system beep, etc).
