I made a soundfont with 2 different (in frequency) samples, so I could
hear if both samples are played together instead alternating. It didn't
happen. They were never played together. So this bug candidate doesn't
seem to be one.
I investigated the sound font some more. The clicking sample was
different compared to the others: it lacked loop information in the
wav-header. Since there wasn't any loop_start/loop_end in the sfz-file
linuxsampler probably used the defaults 0/0. Could be a reason for the
occasional klicks.
Another "bug" in the soundfont could be the release sound:
ampeg_decay=37
loop_mode=one_shot
trigger=release
One_shot mode together with a very long decay could possibly lead to
voice-stealing, another possible source of occasional klicks.
TL;DR
-----
After fixing the soundfont I have now much better results.
