"Static" in left speaker (HDA Codec: Realtek ALC883)

Just got a new desktop, and so far everything has been a dream, except the 
sound ... did a 'snd_driver_load="YES"' to load everything, and the sound 
system is detected as:

pcm0: <HDA Codec: Realtek ALC883>
pcm0: <HDA Driver Revision: 20070710_0047>

If I 'kldunload snd_hda', the static goes away ... reload it, the static comes 
back again ...

Found a reference to <http://people.freebsd.org/~ariff/>, and the lowlatency 
stuff, so tried that, same effect ...

Tried different speakers, just in case, no change ...

I do get sound out, can watch movies and such, but the sound seems to only come 
out the right speaker, and, well, the static is fairly annoying ...

Not sure what else I can do to debug, mind you ... help?

thanks ...
