What XP does or doesn't do is of no value, XP is a different OS with different support.

Have you installed ubuntu-restricted-extras ? Does the USB audio device wok with other apps? If you are using a USB audio device, did you select it as the sound output device in the sound preferences? If you plug in a normal pair of headphones into the headphone socket on your soundcard, does it wok ok? (This is far easier than messing around with USB nonsense).

Can you help with this problem?
