[Bug 1404731] [NEW] [ Dell OptiPlex 7020, Realtek ALC3220, Green Line Out, Rear] Background noise

 

Public bug reported:

Any time I start Ubuntu, just a  sec before it starts I begin to hear background noise from speakers. And the noise isn't gone until I 
shutdown the system.

By the way, when I start listening to any music, I can't get any bass
(although, I have a speaker system with sub woofer, and it worked fine
for me on the previous computer).

A lot of workaround didn't help.
