here is a fix, that worked for me.

I'm also having this issue as well when I play warband. It doesn't happen in any other game either, only warband.
Audio card wise, I have a Creative Titanium Fatality X-Fi Pro. I tried lowering the audio quality, thinking I was hearing the imperfections in the audio files, but that didn't help.
It didn't always happen either, only recently.
EDIT: After much "tinkering", I've found the heart of the problem. In the mount and blade settings file, located under (User/Documents/Mount&Blade Warband), there is a settings file called "rgl_config.txt". In this file is a variable called "use_winmm_audio". By changing this value from 1 to 0, the crackling was gone.
I'm not quite sure what this value is, but if someone could explain it to me that would be useful. That is, the "use_winmm_audio" value.
