Public bug reported: I am hearing popping and clicking while playing some MP3 files. These files may be on the loud side, but the source material is definitely not overdriven. I am using the default audio configuration. I have tried uninstalling Pulse and outputting directly to Alsa, with the exact same results. This problem did not occur on Narwhal, which had the same default out-of-the-box audio configuration. Suspect the in-kernel sound driver.
