Title:
  Background hissing sound even when volume muted

Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Problem also occurs on the front headphone jack, and when using
  different headphones. The volume of the static noise also increases
  whenever I perform some action, e.g. clicking a tab, inserting a usb
  key or compressing/uncompressing a tar.gz archive. There is also a
  consistent pulsing superimposed on the background static noise.

  Modifying /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf with various options for snd-
  hda-intel have had little or no effect, and adjusting the sliders in
  alsamixer have also proved fruitless.
