<div>I was using an m-audio Delta 66, which is pretty well supported for linux, and am running Ubuntu Studio 8. I had the same problem using either ALSA or JACK for output. If it would help, I could test it with another soundcard here, I have a firewire interface too ( Presonus Firepod ), though it has jack support only.<br>

<br>
I finally got around to testing this and I found no problem using interleaved or non-interleaved audio on my 64-bit linux system. Note that the issue here is primarily the RtAudio class, and not any STK classes.<br>
<br>
I tested interleaved and non-interleaved audio output using both the ALSA and JACK APIs. My linux distribution is Fedora 11. My audio hardware is an Intel chipset on the motherboard and an RME HDSP 9632 card.<br>
<br>
Thus, I'm guessing this might be a hardware specific issue. What soundcard were you testing on?<br>
<br>
