Just to throw a completely different spanner in the works here.  I've had this 
happen for I think completely different reasons.

My setup is an Ubuntu server with /var/snd shared via NFS.  The clients are all 
Debian 6 running gnome 2.  On one of the machines something screwy happens to 
the NFS share which results in either large gaps between songs, a complete stop 
for sometimes 30minutes+ only then to resume as if nothing happened.

I looked into it and there is apparently an incompatibility with gnome network 
manager and NFS shares in general under some circumstances.

I upped the NFS concurrent connections (buffers?) and turned off network 
manager which seemed to sort it although I must admit I haven't tested it for 
long as the screwy machine was just an old P4 I was using as an alternative to 
walking up stairs to the studios.

Something to consider if you run a server share and the other suggestions 
aren't working.

Hmm.  I'd be looking at flaky hardware (or possible driver issues, though I 
personally haven't seen that).

The JACK and ALSA setups can use significant amounts of resources (especially 
RAM), which I have seen cause symptoms like this on marginal systems.  
Shouldn't be a problem with an ASI setup though, where one of the big 
advantages is that it offloads all of that from the main CPU.

Cheers!
