 Replying to [comment:14 janne]:
 > Is the stuttering fixed if pulseaudio is disabled?

 My understanding is that pulseaudio isn't enabled unless and entry for it
 is added to /etc/asound.conf or ~/.asoundrc,  Neither of these files is
 present on my machine, and no pulseaudio entries are reported by "aplay
 -L":

 $ aplay -L
 default:CARD=NVidia
     HDA NVidia, ALC883 Analog
     Default Audio Device
 front:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0
     HDA NVidia, ALC883 Analog
     Front speakers
 surround40:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0
     HDA NVidia, ALC883 Analog
     4.0 Surround output to Front and Rear speakers
 surround41:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0
     HDA NVidia, ALC883 Analog
     4.1 Surround output to Front, Rear and Subwoofer speakers
 surround50:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0
     HDA NVidia, ALC883 Analog
     5.0 Surround output to Front, Center and Rear speakers
 surround51:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0
     HDA NVidia, ALC883 Analog
     5.1 Surround output to Front, Center, Rear and Subwoofer speakers
 surround71:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0
     HDA NVidia, ALC883 Analog
     7.1 Surround output to Front, Center, Side, Rear and Woofer speakers
 hdmi:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0
     HDA NVidia
     HDMI Audio Output
 null
     Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture)

 I'm also using AC3 passthrough to the S/PDIF output, which I believe
 should bypass pulseaudio, the external mixer, etc, but I get exactly same
 result without AC3 passthrough and sending the sound either to the S/PDIF
 output or to the analog outputs.  I detect no difference in behavour if I
 kill the pulseaudio daemon.

 The only thing I haven't tried is actually removing pulseaudio entirely.
