I have had similar issues using wav and mp3 files. I haven't profiled the delays, but I did decide to pre-load all of the settings that I could pre-load. Even retrieving all settings from the context and storing them. Then, just call playSound. This doesn't diagnose the problem, but it should reduce a little overhead.
