Hi,

5.8 had alread the new driver, and there are no significant changes
since then that affect the audio flow.

Do other programs stutter or is this specific to audacious?  I run
-current and audacious seems OK on all my machines. 


Could you first update to the lastes audacious version we have in
ports?  (old versions are supposed to work, but let's run the same
code base to ease debugging).

Then, could you do the following:

Start audacious and make it stutter.  While playing the same track,
make it stutter and during the stuttering run this command multiple
times:

        audioctl |grep errors

and see if the error counters are increasing during the stuttering. 
If they don't increase, could you kill sndiod and start it with:

doas sndiod -ddd 2>/tmp/log

and play a sigle track in audacious, and make it stutter.  Then
send me the /tmp/log file.

Feel free to contact me privately if you need more information
and/or if the log file is too long for the list.

thanks
