Noteworthy difference between linux and windows 7:  Windows 7 uses a 
pretty small ring buffer (~ one page, where 20ms sound data fit in) 
whereas linux uses *alot* more, 128k or so.

That makes win7 guests quite sensitive to latency issues, be it in the 
audio subsystem or elsewhere.  For example bulky screen updates with the 
non-threaded vnc server are enougth to cause audible glitches in audio 
playback.

HTH,
   Gerd
