I've searched several boards and haven't found any usefull information regarding my problem.

when playing .mp3s in MythMusic, I get annoying skips every so often (usually one or two every 2 to 5 minutes). The skips are barely a half second long and its just like the audio stops playing for a moment.

I'm running R5A22 and using a Sound Blaster Live! SPDIF output. The soundcard is not used by MythTV since I have a tuner card for that.

CPU usage does not seem to effect the skipping (It still skips with a 90% idle cpu).

Does anyone know of a possible reason this could happen? I haven't seen anything strange in the logs, but I'm not experienced with linux so there might be something there and I wouldn't know it.

Edit:
I forgot to mention that the mp3s don't always skip at the same place, so it's definately not a problem with a skip in the physical file.
