Public bug reported:

Even at minimal setting the sound is quite loud when played in
headphones.

There is a fairly loud pop from the emitted whenever playback begins -
speakers or headphones.

There are some crackles and noise from the headphones.

I'm just starting out with Ubuntu from Windows, using Natty Narwhal,
11.04.

I haven't located the sound 'control panel' just yet so maybe there is a
fix for one or both of my problems there.
