#413: Noise crackling/Popping when PCM muted

--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
 When PCM is muted and audio is playing, then instead of hearing no sound I
 hear a crackling/popping noise.
 Audio is fine when PCM is at anything other than zero.
 I'm using ubuntu 8.10, 0.9.10, and a built in intel sound card on a dell
 d620 laptop.

 There are quite a few reports in the ubuntu bugtracker about this issue,
 see for example:
