Hello everyone. I've just recently upgraded my FC2 laptop to FC3 and to my dismay the PCM playback (xine, xmms, aplay) all produce staticy sounds. I've googled on the subject and tried the following to correct it:
(As an aside sound in FC2 was spotty on this same machine ... however during it's life time, and several kernels the sound did work at one point, it always worked on FC1).

Um. I don't have your hardware, but I suspect you've got something digital going down the wires that connect to your speakers.
Play something, and one by one mute everything that *doesn't* get rid of the music. When the noise goes, you've found your culprit...
