I'm suffering from this regression: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/9/26/53 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47961 which causes my HDA intel sound to be distorted and cracky. Reverting the change mentioned in the LKML thread fixes it. I already mailed the Arch linux kernel maintainer about it. I'm fairly sure that this fix should land in 3.6.1, but because I didn't want to wait I patched my kernel myself...
