Sound issues are usually caused by:

Sound card drivers and/or crappy sound card.
Sound card chosen in game configuration.
Need to play around with: rate, blocksize, buffer amounts in dosbox.conf.

Gotcha, however, it maybe best to ask this over on Vogons as they do have a dedicated DosBox board.....
