Public bug reported:

Problem occurs shortly after pulse-audio is first used after login. I'm
able to reproduce this consistently by trying to play sound through
Firefox right after login, although speech-dispatcher eventually exits
and audio returns to normal.

Only occurs whilst `speech-dispatcher` is visible in `pavucontrol`,
killing `speech-dispatcher` solves the problem for me.

I was able to grab the exact command and arguments being run from `ps`:

`/usr/bin/speech-dispatcher --spawn --communication-method unix_socket
--socket-path /run/user/1000/speech-dispatcher/speechd.sock`

By running it I'm able to reliably trigger the crackling audio.
