Interesting, I just managed to get sound working last nite with the same audio chipset (as root). I added my normal user to the audio group, logged off and then back on, and sound had then stopped working. I was getting a horrible "sheeet, sheeet, sheeet, sheeet" repititive noise. Is this whatyou are experiencing?No, actually. I'm hearing what sounds like a terrible digitization noise. There are just some nasty artifacts in the output when I try and listen to an MP3 or OGG file. I know that the files are good, because when I listen to them on my Rio Volt, they sound fine. Also, they sounded fine a couple of weeks ago.
Are you using any output plugins? For instance, I've noticed the the normalize volume plugin makes some stuff sound horrible if it is too aggressively configured.
