As I mentioned in another post, since upgrading to 4.0 and converting from
Voxware to newpcm, I've noticed quite a significant degradation in audio
performance.  Whereas my MP3s used to play smoothly until the system load
reached a really high level, now I'm getting breakup even with minimal
system loads (on a 166MHz P5).

Any ideas on how I might improve performance?  I've already disabled ATAPI
DMA (my system is pure IDE), thinking there may have been a conflict, and
am using softupdates as well, but still, anytime the system load increases
even slightly, I notice some chop.

Thanks for any ideas.
