Sustained downloading only. Again, I have no idea if your crackling is
my crackling of course. Its a quiet noise signal but a persistant, well umm
crackling. Its an ASUS board dual athlon-mp, 3com controller. It didn't
used to happen, my suspicions are I either moved the cards when cleaning
a while back or it occurred with a kernel upgrade. BTW, have you
tried recording it? My noise can not be recorded, i.e. if I playback
a recording of a noisy signal on my other card it sounds fine.
It was such a pain to diagnose, I felt sure it was my external gear
or a bad DAC. But its absolutely related to network traffic, 100%
sure.
