Same here, my workaround for my ASUS on-board Votex chip: I don't use the "event sounds" in Gnome so I turn off "enable sound server" in the Gnome control center. Start up your mp3 player playing any mp3 file, then start maelstrom. Once the splash screen for maelstrom is done you should be able to quit the mp3 player. The sound in maelstrom seems to have a several second delay between events and output, but it stops chopping for me.
