I tried the 32-bit build from #13446 comment 10 too, although I have 
only stereo hardware.  I managed to provoke a hang-needing-restart 
during some playback/skip operation but didn't investigate further.

I too would like a 50Hz option, to match my recordings; smooth motion 
does look slightly unsmooth at present.  I tried the device's match 
framerate option but didn't see any difference.
