I solved the problem *cough* disabling the ethernet card. Don't know why
it worked randomly yesterday.
It works even with the nvidia accelerated driver. And no more glitches
with -p64 -n4.
5.8ms of total latency with a USB card is better than my old Egosys 2496
(pci) which made Cubase on XP unstable with a buffer less than 512.
Interestingly, the nrpacks parameter of the snd_usb_audio module is set
to 4 (instead of 1 as people suggested on the net).
Thank you, anyway.
