I tried to record some audio using windows 7 and here the noise was not
present indicating that it is not buggy hardware.

Also, the system was not under load when the arecord call was made so if
the memory bus was overloaded I need another way to verify this.

Are there any additional (useful) debugging info I can subtract from the
system that will help aiding the debugging process?

Kind regards
