Hi Markus and all,
as a general issue, would FluidSynth have an automatic way of 
adjusting if buffers so as to avoid clicks and dropouts ?
It seems that it is a general enough issue, as we have found that on 
some SoundBlaster Live Value on Win32 systems, there are actually 
dropouts too, depending on the system load, etc...
Wouldn't there be a way for the driver to notice that it is 'often' 
late relatively to the underlying system and adjust its buffers 
accordingly, maybe even adaptatively ? For example, notice that it is 
late, count the number of times it has been late in the last second, 
and if this is higer than a certain threshold (like 5 times), double 
the underlying buffer size.
Or do I have the wrong model in mind ?
