USB mouse?
Once the audio stops playing (and in some cases the parent app/window
closed), the audio shuts off with an audible "blip", and the whine goes
away.
That's weird. I use 2.6.25 (self-compiled from linux-source-2.6.25)
with no problems.
This is true in both KDE and ICEWM. I'm unsure how to go about
diagnosing/fixing this problem other than dropping back to my previous
kernel.
What happens when you play an audio file from the console? This is
always a helpful baseline:
$ speaker-test -t sine
