I got the same problem on my Dell Inspiron 4100 notebook.

My kernel is 4-stable, cvsupped last night.

Here is the dmesg output:

  pcm0: <Intel 82801CA (ICH3)> port 0xdc80-0xdcbf,0xd800-0xd8ff irq 11 at device 31.5 on pci0

and cat /dev/sndstat:

  FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Apr 21 2002 16:23:19
  Installed devices:
  pcm0: <Intel 82801CA (ICH3)> at io 0xd800, 0xdc80 irq 11 bufsz 16384 (1p/2r/0v channels duplex)

Since I mostly notice this while playing recorded voice mail I can adjust
the playback rate so everything sounds natural again but it would be nice
if someone knows how to fix this.

Thanks a lot for your time and efford in advance!

Regards,

Paul Schenkeveld
