[XCSSA] Sound issues with "The Darkness"

[X-otic Computer Systems of San Antonio]

One of the three games I got for Xmas, along with "Kane & Lynch: Dead Men" (Xbox 360) and "Stuntman: Ignition" (Xbox 360), was "The Darkness" (Xbox 360).

I really like this game and I especially like the music score. However, the problem with it is the sound quality. This becomes especially apparent in the end credits. When the music gets somewhat loud it sounds like the music was put on an old cassette tape and played about 200 times. You know, that kind of worn out warbling sound. I'm baffled by it.

I'm using the standard VGA cable and the regular RCA audio jacks. Now, the VGA cable has an optical port on the plug so I have another sound option. Is the sound for this game meant to best listened through optical/digital as opposed to standard analog or did Starbreeze Studios, the company behind "The Darkness", did an absolutely crap job of sound encoding and that it won't make a difference?

I believe that Charles is the best person to ask this question since he is the resident audiophile but I wanted to see if anybody else had anything to add to this.
