I tested it, but it did not help at all.
I tried "aplay -D pulse" and "aplay -D sysdefault:CARD-PCH" and
it is all the same, no matter if I play over pulseaudio or not.
I already asked for help on pulseaudio-mailinglist and they said
if I hear crackling even when playing sound without pulseaudio,
then problem must be elsewhere...
And when I hear clear sound with "that other evil OS booted",
then I can exclude hardware problem too. So it must be either
driver- or alsa-related...

Hello there,
Here's a workaround:

Tested on the ALC898 (5.1 surround sound system) on Ubuntu 16.04LTS,
as set up here:

Hi ALSA-users,
I have problem with sound on my PC: it is somehow distorted,
"crackling" every few seconds. No matter what player or media
I try, it is always there. I can hear it even when log-in
desktop sound is played...
Motherboard has Realtek ALC892 chip. Nothing new, but still
used with many other mobos. I tested aplaying sound directly
without pulseaudio, crackling is still there.
Any idea how I could fix it?
Sometimes "crackling" is a hardware - electrical problem, such as a broken
connector or cable. What are you using to listen? headphones into the
headphone output, speakers into the speakers output, S/PDIF into a DAC? Do
you have other configurations you can try - headphones, speakers, outputs?

C'est ma façon de parler.
I do not think this is hardware problem. I switched drives
and booted from the old one with Windows7/64b again: sound
is clear without any crackling...
