I am experiencing the same kind of distortion, if I don't select Analog
Stereo Output/Duplex. Updated to Karmic a few hours ago and in Jaunty it
worked all fine.

Doing speaker-test -c6 -tsine the distortion affects the two right channels and 
the LFE cannel most, but the others aren't completely clean. There is also some 
kind of regular click noise during the high-pitched distortion.
speaker-test -c6 -tsine -Dsurround51 emits clean sound (actually, front right 
and also rear left are still *slightly* distorted, but its the same as with 
Analog Stereo)
