Making the sound buffer 32K instead of 4K (like a related thread on this 
list suggested) helped me with the sound, listening to MP3's while I work 
is now bearable, and I don't get the "hwptr moved backwards" crap, but the 
jerkiness is still there.

It's been said it's caused by IRQ latency and that the SMPNG guys are 
working on it, so I guess it's a question of keeping current till this is 
solved.
