Public bug reported:
Ever since a recent software update (within the last month or so), audio
quality is terrible. I've plugged in various sets of speakers, and the
quality is consistent, so it's definitely a software bug.
The distortion is in the higher frequencies, and might be describe as a
whine or a buzz.
