As some might have noticed, with the 7.4.0-firmware audio-stuttering
really spoils listening to music on the controller.

I updated my Headphone-Pluging to ease the pain A LOT :)
If you reinstall it (version 0.2) you will find a third option 'Improve
Audio Playback'. 
On my controller now I only have very rare stutters (once every second
song or so)

What is happening behind the scenes ?
Well - the plugins finds the process responsible for audio-playback and
just increases its priority. UI effects like scrolling text etc. thus
can't interfere with playback that much.
Please note that I don't know what other sideeffects this could have,
if unsure just restart your controller to revert to the original state.
Testing about two hours now - couldn't notice anything bad.

Thanks to bhaagensen for giving me the idea

As a sidenote: logitech improved the playback with 7.4.1 which you can
download as a beta (http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=7.4).
The effect is roughly the same - some stutters left as well but in very
good shape to enjoy music. 
The Audio playback process got 'realtime' priority there, my
plugin-option then won't improve anything anymore (the changes are just
ignored)
