Yes, I use OSS from ports, ie. compiled from sources.

Now after playing with audio.oss_sync_method, it seems xine is now playing ok. But there is a slight audible clip sound once in a while, like when you play LP records when there is a bit of dust. The value for audio.oss_sync_method is getoptr. That's what was originally.

But when play a 3 minute song in amarok, it just play fast forward in less than a second.
