Also, in 4.10: [szamoca:9] man device.hints No manual entry for device.hints So perhaps device.hints is not supported in 4.10. > also, have you tried playing > with targetirqrate? Yes, quite a bit. I set hw.snd.verbose to 2 and compiled stats for hw.snd.targetirqrate set to 16, 24, 32, 48, and 64. There was no effect to either the perceived sound quality or the rate of underruns reported by sndstat. BTW, if it makes any difference, this is an SMP machine --- albeit an older one. It has 2 x PII 300MHZ.
