Neither OpenAL nor ALUT can generate grey or pink noise.

With your own noise buffer, you're probably getting clicking because the 
sample at the end of your buffer doesn't match up with the sample at the 
beginning (even noise has to have continuous samples).

If you were generating sine waves, I'd tell you to make sure you size 
your buffer as a function of the frequency (so the samples at the 
beginning and end were both near zero), but I'm not sure what to suggest 
with a noise waveform (I don't know what parameters go into a particular 
noise function).
