To elaborate on this bug:

- I've found someone on reddit who went into more detail (including futile pulseaudio sorcery): https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/comments/68rirb/mic_cracklingstatic/
- He was kind enough to upload an audio sample: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1kXCJ6A8v29N3lBT0c4TGdRbFE

I have encountered the same problem. It is present from 4.11 to 4.12.0-rc5 (most recent rc as of this writing). I tried a few distros; all have the same problem.

Windows 10 records without distortion.

This device identifies as "Vendor Id: 0x10ec1168". See attached alsa-info file and ignore the ATI HDMI and Audioengine noise as best as possible.
