Title:
  [USB-Audio - PnP Audio Device, playback] Sound is distorted

Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  It works properly for some time.
  Then, in a sudden, sound output is multiplied and distorted.
  Then, there is no way how to configure it to make it work properly. I need to reinstall drivers and reset computer.

  I did:
  sudo m-a update
  sudo m-a prepare

  rm -r ~/.pulse ~/.asound*
  sudo rm /etc/asound.conf

  and later reset and everything works for another while.

  But problem comes again and again.

  My system runs Ubuntu 14.10, 64 bits
