Probably the FreeBSD is working as Windows, they use the software de-
noise filter when users record sound.

Please test with "pactl load-module module-echo-cancel", then choose
echo-cancelled record device from gnome-sound-setting->input tab.  Now
record sth, and play it. Is it better now?

If there is sth in the kernel driver to introduce the noise, the thing I can 
figure out so far is change the micbias reference voltag:
Right now the reference for two mics:
Rear Mic: Pin-ctls: 0x21: IN VREF_50
Front Mic: Pin-ctls: 0x24: IN VREF_80

You can try to set them with different value like "HIZ 50 GRD 80 100",
maybe some value can improve the sound quality.

The patch_realtek.c has some sample code to set verf.

Title:
  Microphone distorted sound on ALC892

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Not sure if I'll report this upstream but there is definitely an issue
  with microphone recording on my desktop, this is not happening on my
  laptop which has a different codec.

  Already tried all workarounds possible, no luck. Only with my desktop
  with this particular motherboard. No issues in Windows, the sound
  recorded in there is distorted and has some static and robotic tone on
  high-pitch.
