When the treble is distorted it's almost always an indication of too strong amplification so that you have clippings. Here is an excerpt from the config: # By default, the front analog channels have a +12dB boost applied to # them by the AC'97 mixer. If you encounter clipping, or find that the # volume of the front speakers is too high in a multichannel setup, try # changing this to 'no'. ANALOG_FRONT_BOOST=yes You see, your's is set to 'yes', while mine is set to 'no' (although I don't remember hearing many distortions when it was set to 'yes'). Try setting it to 'no'. Hope it helps.
