Nice work David and Richard.  PortAudio is a library that talks to alsa 
etc, rather than yet another linux sound system.  So you won't see any 
"portaudio" devices.

On my Linux box running FreeDV I see devices like "pulse", Logitech USB 
Headset etc.

Not sure about the choppy audio, mines OK.

Cheers,

David
