[linux-audio-user] Audiotrak Maya EX5 playback problem

Hello, I have $(SUBJ) and have following problem. At certain conditions, there occur clicks in the output of the soundcard. It doesn't matter on what application I use for playback. The result is same for aplay, xmms. It seems the number of 'clicks', which disturbes the playback repeats in certain frequency and probability at which it occur is greater with rising dynamics of sound source. For sure i tried to play the same sound source under MS Win and realized, that there is no such problem. --<cut>-- raven@edmund:~> uname -a Linux edmund 2.6.11-edmund #1 Tue Mar 15 18:53:04 CET 2005 i686 unknown unknown GNU/Linux raven@edmund:~> cat /etc/slackware-version Slackware 10.1.0 raven@edmund:~> ls /var/log/packages/ | grep alsa-utils alsa-utils-1.0.8-i486-1 raven@edmund:~> cat .asoundrc --<cut>-- Kernel is vanilla one with no patches with PREEMPT disabled. Complete config file can be seen at http://213.168.184.214/~raven/tmp/edmund-config I know, that this sound card cannot sampling rate 44100Hz but only 48000Hz. This is the reason 'something' (perhaps alsalib) must do upsample from 44100Hz to 48000Hz. Could be this the cause? How can I get rid of it? Thanks a lot for answer Martin Rehak
