Hi!
JFTR, we've seen users that report distorted sound on their macbooks when using jackd.
The workaround is to force 16-bit output:

Chip in question was the Cirrus Logic CS4206. We don't know yet which of the formats (32/24) is broken, maybe only one, maybe both.
I happen to have a spare MacBookPro around, but I won't have time to look into that myself anytime soon.
If somebody else has such a device and wants to give it a whirl, feel free to go ahead. ;)
Cheers
