Public bug reported:

The machine is an Asus K50IJ laptop, on which Karmic used to run
perfectly. Maverick was installed fresh from a USB stick. Sound is
initially fine and can be fine, but there are long periods where it is
chipped, as if coming from a turntable experiencing shocks that make the
needle jump grooves. As long as I keep moving the mouse cursor slowly
over the screen the sound becomes smooth, and gets chipped again when I
stop moving the mouse. Same behaviour with video: keeps jumping from one
still image to another unless I move the mouse -- that produces smooth
movement for a while. Terminals and some editors react unnaturally slow
to keyboard entry at times. All attempts to watch a DVD result in
"Cannot read from resource". There is a problem with speakers and
headphones that is often reported but perhaps misinterpreted. Speakers
are coupled with headphones, when the jack is inserted they are both
muted simultaneously but can be unmuted -- again simultaneously -- by
clicking on the tiny loudspeaker icon on top. But there is no way to use
one without the other, and gnome-alsamixer says ** (gnome-
alsamixer:3519): WARNING **: gam_toggle_get_state (). No idea what to do
for mixer element "Independent HP"!

** Affects: alsa-driver (Ubuntu)
