Thanks for the quick reply!

My sound devices:

pcm0: <CMedia CMI8738> at io 0xa400 irq 10 (1p/1r/0v channels duplex default) pcm1: <Avance Logic ALS4000> at io 0xa000 irq 9 (1p/1r/0v channels duplex)

Both sound cards have the same problem.

would suggest that you play with enabling, disabling vchans and see if

I tried

sysctl hw.snd.pcm0.vchans=4 sysctl hw.snd.maxautovchans=4

but it doesn't help. I'm getting a bunch of extra

And setting them to 0?

Isn't that the default value? Anyway, I tried it and the sound is still not good. (Only one 'native_blitbuffer: select error occured')

It's a little weird. The default is

Sound card with one output channel -> maxautovchans=1 Sound card with multiple output channels -> maxautovchans=0

Can you also experiment with soft mixing, (I'm forgotting what we actually call it), y'know auto-rate/format conversion.
