It appears that above two points are related. If I pad spaces at the window manager level the audio quality suffers! If I concede some screen space and reduce the amount of padding the sound quality is better again. Is there some way at xorg server level to "crop" the display size? I am using native xorg and I am on -current 10.99.2. (xrandr based new mode creation or rotation etc aren't working, as shared before) -- Mayuresh
