Bug Description
In my setup I am using analog 5.1 speakers but by default Ubuntu Feisty Herd-5 selects the "Digital Output Jack" option on installation. The result is a lot of noise instead of clear sound.
The solution is simply to disable the "Digital Output Jack" option in the switches section of the sound configuration.
I'd rather like to see the analog output is used by default as many users don't use the digital output and thus would expect the sound card to work.

I have a Creative Audigy Value and for me there was no sound after installation of Feisty. Disabling the "Digital Output Jack" on the "Switches" tab in volume control solved the problem.
My guess is that the majority of the people use the analog output, so setting this by default would avoid a lot of questions...
