The other problem is that the front headphone jack doesn't work. The rear one works, but this is less than convenient. :)  Windows and ubuntu linux do not have either problem with the same hardware.

Try
sysctl hw.snd.default_unit=1

You have 2 separate outputs, almost certainly one is the rear and one is the front.

The noise you hear might be fixable using mixer to mute any other sources but PCM.
