I see (well, hear) this exact problem using a Televideo Soundblaster clone,
on 3.4-stable.  Once in a while it will just start emitting white noise, like
the byte-swabbing got messed up somehow, usually at the beginning of a
playback.  I suspect it's a bug in mpg123, but it might be the sound driver
(less likely, though, if you're seeing it in 4.0).

The sound card probes as:

Probing for PnP devices:
CSN 1 Vendor ID: OPT0931 [0x3109143e] Serial 0xffffffff Comp ID: @@@0000 [0x00000000]
mss_attach <OPTi931>1 at 0x530 irq 10 dma 1:6 flags 0x16
pcm1 (OPTi931 <OPTi931> sn 0xffffffff) at 0x530-0x537 irq 10 drq 1 flags 0x16 on isa

With a userconfig_script of
pnp 1 1 os enable port0 0x534 port2 0x220 port3 0xe0d irq0 10 drq0 1 drq1 6

Otherwise the card works fine.
