fwiw, most of the work on the native jack backend was done on an azalia. I use it with sub 5ms latency settings when I plug in the keyboard and use a soft synth. of course, what really matters is the codec in your device. sigmatel sold it's audio stuff to idt. you can find stac* datasheets on idt.com. although, I haven't yet found one for stac7661.
