I tried the command below and there is a nice clean tone broken up intermittently by interference like noise about 1/4 - 1/2 a second long.

I tried all the volume controls and they didn't change distortion.

I have just tried this with the latest SUSE live CD and that also has distortion.

   You don't have too high volume somewhere causing digital distortion?
   Is the problem present is you try another sound card (e g USB headphones if you have any)?

   If you run
   pasuspender -- speaker-test -c 2 -t sine -D plughw:0

   ...is the sound still broken?
