Thanks Kai, this is great feedback. Is every application affected, or
only some applications? The patch is intended to improve audio with
USB hardware and remove the need for hacks like the PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC
override, using winealsa on PA systems, or disabling PA altogether.

Could you send me a short log with the channels from
https://wiki.winehq.org/Sound along with a description of your audio
hardware? Either private email or on bug 28282 is great.

Thanks,
Andrew
