In addition, the line in/mic input goes through the soundcard without distortion. I can hear the input through the speakers, and it sounds good. It's only during the recording process that it gets distorted.

I don't know what's wrong! Has anyone had this problem? Any ideas how to fix it? thanks

I have the same problem, when I record, using krecord, I get an annoying beeping sound when I play what I just recorded.
