I cannot quatify it but it is very noticeable and feels "wrong" when playing my game. for example I play a sound when a piece is selected however due to the lag the sound feel a bit out of place. I will try to profile whats going on here. But I thought perhaps someone may have had experienced this issue and come up with a solution or workaround. I will try Matts idea of calculating the volume before hand etc so I have to simply call soundPool.play(). Only issue is that creates extra work i.e the sound volume might have changed by the user meanwhile and also I'm very doubtful if it will improve the lag.
