Using the xine engine in amarok produces lots of clicks. Moving to the Helix engine works much better. Audacity, w/o jack, clicks too with any typing, net, window movement... the usual.
Did you make sure that the soundcard IRQ is higher prio than all other IRQs and that Audacity has realtime mode enabled (actually I have no idea whether it has such a thing but it should)
I'm also concerned with the playback rate. Some apps playback too slow (amarok and snd, neither with jack) while audacity plays back at the right sample rate (with or w/o jack).
Probably your hardware only supports 48Khz but these apps use a hw device which disables software resampling. Audacity would work as it uses OSS compatibility layer which resamples in kernel space.
