I am having hick-ups in games like Bit.trip Beat also with the ALC892
onboard sound with ubuntu 12.04/amd64. Is there any log/output I can
supply?

Title:
  [Realtek ALC892] Audio skips with intensive i/o like copying files

Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've got a practically brand-new AMD Phenom II X4 965 system with a
  RAID 1 mirror of two SATA-II drives and onboard audio running a clean
  install of Maverick.

  When I copy a large folder of pictures or something to another folder
  on the same array, I get random hiccups in the audio.

  This computer is quite fast and I imagine the software should be quite
  mature- so I don't know why I wouldn't be able to listen to music with
  Rhythmbox while copying files. At most, I also have Chromium and/or
  Firefox sitting idle in the background doing nothing intensive.

  Given prior experience, I'm inclined to believe this is a problem with
  pulseaudio, not alsa, but I don't know how to figure that out, and
  Ubuntu audio isn't really usable without pulseaudio anymore. (I tried
  bypassing pulse and just using straight alsa with this machine running
  Lucid. It was not pretty and ended in me wiping the machine.)
