1) Two days ago: MIDI sequencer tempo went up during play, and it's not a
tiny increase, I'm guessing +10% or more. There seems to be nothing to help
but to wait. I of course pressed stop, play, stop, rewind to beginning. It
comes down when it wants, within half a minute or so. This time I had an
audio track (recorded in Rosegarden, thus having the default 48kHz in/out)
and the audio was not speeding -> MIDI and audio went out of sync.

So this points to ALSA / kernel? What should I try next?

I have clean Ubuntu Studio 18.04 install, no tweaks (having default 48 kHz
still and I don't even know how to change that for Rosegarden or my system
yet). 2 x M-Audio Delta 1010LT (though only one in audio use via JACK, both
having ALSA MIDI out, cards are synced together via S/PDIF), onboard audio
disabled from BIOS, no other soundcards (net, USB, BT... nothing I can
think of).

RG says the timer is "system". I once tried to select HR, but it jammed the
whole computer, power button reset was needed.

Reading what I type: I have to double check the second Delta 1010LT, if
it's really synced to the first card. Both of the cards are used for MIDI,
and sync out from RG is connected to both. I would be happy to use
soundcard timer in my system all the time, if it just is reasonable option.

2) Using RG to send MIDI clock with start/stop/continue, I noticed Korg
Volca Bass rush a few 16th in start, thus playing in advance (out of sync
wrt RG sequence). I don't know if this is anyway related, so I though I
will mention anyway. On other squencers I've used I guess they send MIDI
clock all the time, and add PLAY/STOP when needed, so there was no rushing.
Need to capture MIDI clocks or verify with other MIDI-syncable systems.
