The noise (when not from a poor quality sound card or electrical interference) is usually result from having some of the input channels unmuted.

For example, if the line in or mic channels are unmuted, and you have nothing there, they could produce noise.

Use the ossmix command to edit the volumes.
The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.

I new that the word noise would have been misunderstood, sorry but english is not my first language.
I mean the sound is not good, nothing to do with unmuted volumes

The bass and discant boosts can also cause bad noise..
