Not sure if -ports is the proper place for this, but I might as well 
continue the thread. Just in case those following this thread missed it, 
I believe that these noises popping thingies are probably 
specific to SoundBlaster cards AND xmms. 

I run the following:

I run the following:

AMD Athlon 700 stuck atop an Asus K7V running FreeBSD current.

I originally noticed a severe crackling while using the (complete
crap, might I add) OSS driver in xmms. This driver was a major cause
of microuptime() errors which would bring the system (an Athlon 700,
remember?) to its knees until a reboot. Upon switching to the eSound
driver, sound quality improved dramatically and microuptime() are almost 
non-existant (non-existant-enough that I may say that they are gone).

Extrapolate what you may from the above, and good hunting.
