Public bug reported:

I have recently installed Ubuntu onto a newly built computer with an
ASRock H87 Performance Motherboard. I am using a TV monitor for a
screen, connected with HDMI. The visuals work fine but the audio is
severely distorted and echoes.

When testing the sound in the hardware settings, it sounds like
"FRONTFRONTFRONTFRONT" with static or overdrive getting more and more
prominent as the sound goes on. I have changed the Alsamixer levels but
found no change. The built-in sound card also shows up when i look for
it as per the Sound Troubleshooting page.
