Comment (by Pete):

 A significant finding (I think):

 I finally realized it wasn't completely useless to just remove the auich
 driver and see what happens.  The audio chain runs just fine when I do --
 presumably with the null-audio driver (though I see nothing in syslog
 about it).

 When I do this, and, say, play an mp3, I ''still'' see the latency
 reported by Cortex increasing when I wiggle windows, ''and'' my test app
 I've been using to look at the 'blackouts' behind all this still shows the
 same rate of blackouts in the same sort of places.  (The latency without
 an actual driver is initially less than 1 msec, but increases rapidly when
 glitches occur.)

 Which means that the crackles are nothing to do with the audio hardware.
 If they really don't occur with other audio drivers (and are not just
 being masked by perhaps a large default buffer size) something ''very''
 odd is going on!
