The distortion you are hearing are no doubt x-runs, in my mind. the audio isn't getting to the system outputs (soundcard), from your app fast enough. Your options are to either give it a bigger buffer/frames size (which it looks like you have already done?)... ...or i would suggest not using the "directsound" driver, but instead using wineASIO/jack. however, i have never tested Adobe audition under linux or with WineASIO, for that matter. (i haven't used it since it was Cooledit pro, a long time ago). Obviously though, if you end up thinking about running wineASIO, you will need to setup Jack-audio-connection-kit and also have either a rt-kernel or a low-latency kernel. I don't think the Directsound in Wine, is going to be good enough for using a DAW like Adobe Audition, especially if you plan on using 96000 sample rate, and possibly live-effects or multi-tracking, to some degree??? that just seems very unlikely to work well. I use lots of windows pro-audio apps in wine, all of which i use with Jack. My tascam Us-122L (usb2.0) soundcard supports 96000 ~ it works very well with my Wine/audio apps. But, i also run an optimized RT-like kernel. If i didn't, i would probably run into xruns / distortion and other unwanted audio glitches. that's my 2 cents jordan
