Here I have another strange problem. Whereas I can use Pd with the Quattro in my homebox just fine, Pd on my laptop will crickle and crackle in regular intervals unless I set the buffer to "-blocksize 2048", which is quite a bit of latency.
Does someone have an idea, where this could come from?
Possibly other devices nabbing the PCI bus while you're not looking? I found the article by Daniel Robbins at
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-hw2.html
pretty informative, although I'm unable to alter most of the PCI latencies in my cheap laptop, so I still get clicks when using ALSA directly from Pd, although (oddly enough) not with OSS emulation -- all of this for the onboard sound chip (i810) only...
