For me, it made the whole thing work :-)

I can only tell about 0.12.2 because I havend tried the 1.0 yet:

Every 20ms the soundcard is read, as snd_card_has_data() always returns
true (because there are always some samples digitized and ready to be
read - but you don't know how many). The read() wants to get 256
samples (512 bytes=r->gran) and hangs in the driver until the requested
number of samples have been digitized.  Thus I got a "jerky" output.

Reducing r->gran to 160*2, this way the one end of the fifo reads as
many bytes from the soundcard as the other end of the fifo writes to
the network.

I don't know why the original code works with OSS and ALSA cards,
though. :-)
