If you only have the buzz when using the front plug, it's most likely just because of interference on the connection between the front panel and the soundcard. Another thing you might find is that if you are only using the front
panel with your headphones and only using the back plug for your
speakers, that he noise is always audible, but just more noticeable
through the headphones. Otherwise, I've heard that the intel8x0 sound module always causes this kind of noise in the background (it did for my onboard nForce2 audio). Unfortunately the only solution I came up with was to stick in an old SB Live! card, and use that instead. The only hint I could really offer is to try to keep the wire from the soundcard to the front panel away from anything that could cause this noise.
Hope this helps

lspci tells me my soundcard (in some recent generic dell box) is the
following:
0000:00:1e.2 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7
Family) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 01)
I'm using a fairly default debian sid installation.
Any hints as to how to start fixing this?
