I agree with this as well, at the moment many games make horrible crackly sound on anything but Creative Labs sound cards, at the moment there are two workarounds:

 - Get a Creative sound card (But not the X-Fi which isn't Linux compatible yet)

 - Manually compile the OpenAL software drivers, and stick with your previous sound card

OpenAL has been broken like this for a few releases of Ubuntu now, it's been like this far too long, com'on let's fix this issue :)
