try installing the newest drivers for the sound card. also low memory or low disk space can cause issues with sound if the system is lagging. try booting into safe mode and see if the sound plays right. if it does reboot and the run msconfig and turn off stuff in start up you dont need. if you have less the n4g of ram look into installing more memory.
