[LAU] clicks/drop-outs

[Geoff Beasley]

anyone know of a way to find out what could be interfering with my soundcards 
and causing substantial clicks  every now and then?  when i playback tone i 
see them  maybe 3 or 4 every 5 minutes. i have 3 c-ports running as one 30 
channel array,tho it's the same with just one card, using alsa 1.0.14, jack 
103 (tried 107 too) SMP 22.1-rt9 kernel, 3800+ x2. weird thing is my custom 
gentoo  build does this but musix "live" doesn't. any thoughts ? i've set my 
priorities and tried every combination of changes ( smp/up/rt/no rt/i can 
think of but to no avail. it record fine, but when duplexing it clicks.

best,

g.
