you need more debug info to find out what happen
Enable basic debugging and dump stack, check hardware pointer on the period update
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound.git/tree/Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Audio.txt
how about enable_msi=0 ?
if it don't help, you need to file bug report at
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Drivers

Title:
periodic audio skips with Intel HDA
Status in PulseAudio sound server:
Confirmed
Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When running PulseAudio, if I'm playing music via any source (Exaile, Totem,
Flash in Firefox or Chromium, VLC, etc.) every few minutes the audio will skip
once or twice. top doesn't show any process eating CPU any more when it
happens. dmesg doesn't show anything. Nothing else seems to be affected. It
doesn't seem to happen regularly.
I just installed Ubuntu 12.04 from scratch (with pulseaudio 1:1.1-0ubuntu15),
but the same thing happened in 10.04 on the same hardware. Uninstalling the
PulseAudio packages and going back to ALSA gives me no issues whatsoever, which
is how I know the issue is with PulseAudio. I'm using my onboard audio device:
$ lspci | grep Audio
00:14.2 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI SBx00 Azalia (Intel
HDA)
Following mailing list instructions, pulseaudio -vvvv --log-time shows during a
skip:

...and it goes on.
The "Underrun!" messages alone happened a few times before, but it
didn't skip.
I'd like to use PulseAudio, but it's pretty annoying having audio skip all the
time.
