Had this problem before. The Wifi driver clashing with the LAN driver in my case. You can find out which driver is causing the problem by running LatencyMon. Updating the driver may not help if it's a hardware issue.
Read this for more info on why it happens and to download LatencyMon:

Running DPC Latency Checker may help to see when there are problems even though you don't hear any crackles all the time:

If you have the same problem, to fix you could disable the LAN driver in Device Manager and leave the Wifi driver on instead to avoid the clash, or replace the wifi card with a different model/brand. I had an Atheros before and upgraded to an Intel Centrino card.
Using DPC Latency Checker can help you identify if you're still having the issue after you've disabled a driver.
Test with headphones to see if it's an audio problem that only occurs with internal speakers or with headphones too. If it's just internal speakers it could well be that your computer has one of Intel's dodgy transistors controlling the headphone jack. So external speakers would be a way around it.
