Change looks fine, but I'd like to understand more the differences between the two modes and why MMAP access mode fixes this particular problem. Can you tell me the difference between these two access modes and why MMAP access mode is preferable for LG-ARM? Why does changing the access mode fix this problem of audio "jitters" at startup?
