I am on Ubuntu 11.10 64 bits. According to the first reporter, it is also present in 12.04. I also have an ASUS Sabertooth 990fx motherboard and I am using the integrated sound chip. It happens that, while playing a sound, the sound server constantly switches between Analog Output and Headphone. It causes a big popping noise and other interferences. It happens whenever the speakers are plugged into the Lime and Black connectors which are respectively Front and Rear Speakers Out. The only workaround is to use the Gray or Orange connectors which are normally used in 8 channel mode for respectively "Side Speaker Out" and "Center/Subwoofer". When the stereo speakers are plugged into these connectors, the sound is stable. I guess it is a driver problem.
