I've sent you a PM regarding the binary.

This is not expected behaviour.  Unfortunately, I don't see the pause
problem.  I use the 0.8-25 win32 binary all day, every day at work and
pause it constantly.  The track starts exactly where I paused it.  I do
it so often that I've mapped the keyboard audio keys to run a cli script
to pause/unpause squeezeslave from my windows manager on Solaris.

This could be related to the version of SC I'm still running 7.2.2 -
r24134 at work, actually at home too.  What version of SC are you
running?  I'll install that release on my test system to see if I can
replicate the problem.

Would you download a v0.7.5.1 binary from sourceforge and see if pause
works with that release.  If it does, then please try 0.8-12 and report
back on your findings.  This will help me narrow down what change may be
causing the pause problem.

I too still have the stuttering problem using alsa.  I've gone back to
using oss emulation with alsa as it's rock solid.  Unfortunately, you
loose the ability to share the audio device that way.  Thankfully, this
hasn't been an issue for me.

I believe KeyzerSuze's observations as to the real cause of the
stuttering using alsa holds true.

Unfortunately, I've been unable to figure out why it's only an issue
using portaudio v19+;

Here's my cli script; sccmd if anyone is interested.


Code:
--------------------
    
  #!/bin/bash
  
  # Win32 squeezeslave
  SSMAC=00:17:31:7B:88:7b
  MAC=00%3A17%3A31%3A7b%3A88%3A7b
  
  SSHOST=ralphydt
  SSTCP="/dev/tcp/$SSHOST/9090"
  
  exec 8<>${SSTCP}
  echo -e "login username password\r\n$MAC $1\r\nexit\r\n" >&8
  RESPONSE=`cat <&8`
  
--------------------


and the keyboard mappings for fvwm2


Code:
--------------------
    
  Key SunAudioLowerVolume         A       N       Exec $HOME/scripts/sccmd 
"mixer volume -2.5"
  Key SunAudioLowerVolume         A       S       Exec $HOME/scripts/sccmd 
"button jump_rew"
  Key SunAudioRaiseVolume         A       N       Exec $HOME/scripts/sccmd 
"mixer volume +2.5"
  Key SunAudioRaiseVolume         A       S       Exec $HOME/scripts/sccmd 
"button jump_fwd"
  Key SunAudioMute                A       N       Exec $HOME/scripts/sccmd pause
