OK, this program uses a direct DAC writes rather than a DMA output. The problem is that the output frequency is unknown in that case and can vary. So this cannot be fixed. The only thing you can do is to adjust the DIRECT_WRITE_FREQ constant in linux_sound.h to satisfy the needs of a particular program (but you will not get a perfection anyway as the frequency is not necessary a constant in that mode). DMA-less output is an extremely absolete method and fortunately is rarely used with a DMA-capable cards like SB.
