If you configure E-UAE with --with-sdl-sound and --with-alsa then SDL wins and 
you get SDL sound.

Recent changes in audio settings mean that the E-UAE generally doesn't try to 
ensure the sound buffer it uses is a power of 2 in size. I would suspect that 
SDL must pass that directly along to whatever audio API it's using and in 
your case it doesn't like that.

On Linux, I wouldn't recommend using the SDL sound driver in E-UAE.

Configure with --with-alsa only. That should work, because ALSA should round 
the buffer size up or down itself if that is necessary.

Let me know if that works for you.

Cheers,
Rich
