yeah exactly, Azimer's sounds like it has similar problems, repeating sounds, staticy noises etc.. maybe its a bit cleaner output, neither is good for me :/
Just to make sure... I did play the game for a bit and i can confirm my answer.
With Jabo DirectSound 1.6, the sound crackles alot and usually you can go into the Audio plugin and sync audio to game... this is not the case as it freezes the games if doing so. So I swapped out the audio plugin with Azimer's Audio Plugin v0.56 WIP 2. It doesn't crackle as bad (Cleaner output) and only the first two boxes are checked in it's Audio plugin settings... My sound card might be good... I don't know.
I do hear a small difference between the two sound plugins...
