128 seems to be fine. It's not consistent, sometimes 64 works ok,
sometimes it overruns (says so in the console and hitches). 128 has
never overrun, neither visually (saying it in the console), nor audible
(clicks/pops).

  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This is tested against a Creative Labs Sounblaster live! (sb0410) card
  and a SoundBlaster Audigy se (sb0570). Both of them behave strangely,

  both cards.
