Comment 17 for bug 359361

this is still an annoying issue. i'm on lucid 2.6.32-24-generic. got rid of this problem somehow in the past by deleting some alsa files and reinstalling it. tried just reinstalling now, didn't fix the distortion. perhaps this is some resampling issue? i observed that the noise is most prominent in sine waves at the pitch of a high b and c (tested that with zynaddsubfx and jack)
