I got a new Ivy Bridge laptop this week with a dmesg that looks
broadly similar to Alexander's--in particular it has the same Intel
HD Audio and ALC269 codec--and playing audio is broken there as
well.

To simplify things, I stopped sndiod and ran mpg123 directly.  That
produces mostly noise, but concurrent system activity sometimes
improves the sound, so you can actually make out that it is playing,
say, song51.mp3.  Running "ls -R /" in another xterm works best,
though neither disk (dd) nor video (glxgears) activity on their own
have much effect.

There are no play.errors.  Frequently it sounds as if azalia0 is
stuck on the same audio buffer, just repeating it over and over
again.  systat(1) shows azalia0 getting 10 interrupts/s no matter
how good or bad the audio sounds.

My best guess is some sort of interrupt or DMA problem.
