Public bug reported:

Recently I bought a new Inspiron 3501, and it came pre-installed with
Windows 10. I wanted to try Ubuntu linux on it so, I dual-booted Ubuntu
20.04 on it to check if everything is working fine. After installation,
everything is working fine except the audio output. The sound kind of
crackles. It works perfectly fine on windows though. I tested inbuilt
speakers, Bluetooth headset, and output from 3.5 mm audio jack but no
difference. I tried youtube videos and local audio and video files but
the outcome is the same. I tried many online solutions but without any
success. I also installed Ubuntu 21.04, to check if the new kernel
brings any improvement but the condition was the same. Don't know how to
fix this issue. Any help is appreciated.
