Hello I am having stuttering problems whenever any sound is played on my computer. I have an asus z97i-plus motherboard I am not sure where to even begin with diagnosing this problem. Any help would be appreciated.

This may be a good start:

Also providing the following may help:
- Type of media you are using? Physical CD or audio file like an MP3?
- The app you're using to play audio?

No I have not installed restricted extras, and yes I have visited the sites you linked above. What are restricted extras? And are they okay to install in the us? Not sure I try to run only the minimum restricted drivers on my sytem. But I did not see my intel audio devece on the support list on ubuntu .

P.s. Thank you all for the quick responses, I love Linux and do not want to go back to window's so as soon as I get this little hickup solved I will be golden!

You can install restricted extras via
Menu->System->Lite Software. They are ok to install in the US, my fellow American.
I also just did a Google web search on "ALC892 Ubuntu" and got a couple of links with the titles:
14.04 - ALC892 Low sound issue fixed with changing alsa ...
http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&...6055,d.dmo
and
Thread: Realtek ALC892 No sound - Ubuntu Forums
http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&...6055,d.dmo
They might help.

This might also help:
Installing Realtek ALC892 Audio Driver on Linux Mint
http://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/1236
You might also want to try
Menu->Settings->Install Drivers and see if you get any options in the Additional Drivers tab.
