The soundcard _may_ be the source of your problems. I recommend:

- do a 44.1 kHz encoding
- decode it (make a Wav file)
- burn it on Audio CD
- check this CD on a standalone CD player.

It the sound is not distorted when playing from CD something is wrong 
with your computer.

When playing the original file (the source you make your Ogg files from) 
on your computer: Are there any distortions? Is your sorce already 
compressed lossy (MP3, WMA, AAC etc)?
