Still have the hiss and static problems with the final release of Intrepid.
* Did a complete wipe of *all* Gnome/KDE settings (via a home directory move) - 
just in case something funky going on. No change.
* Brand new user on the same machine - no change.
* Don't have to play anything to get the hiss - just turn the volume settings 
up and arrive at hiss central. Sadly when playing any tunes, the background 
hiss is still very noticeable.
* Likewise with the static popping.


Have managed to work around the horrible hiss with headphones[1]:
* kill the running pulseaudio processes
* change Sound Preferences to use 'ALSA' for everything, except for Default 
Mixer Tracks - which uses 'HDA Intel (Alsa mixer)
* disable the pulseaudio startup in Sessions Preferences


[1] I'd assume exists with the speakers - just not turned up loud enough to 
discover - but is very noticeable with noise cancelling headphones.
