Sorry,
Meant to mention the OSS Drivers from 4front from a while back also worked without clicking.
Hm, did it really work even though your device is emu20k2? I thought their driver supported only emu20k1. Maybe added later.
Anyway, you can try the latest snapshot, which now includes the native timer support on emu20k2. It was only for emu20k1 until today.

GIT is the easiest way. For example, look at the page below: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound-2.6.git;a=history;f=sound/pci/ctxfi;h=91c958a7e171313fe68d728a3b4860287ad40aa7;hb=HEAD Takashi > On Sun, 2009-07-19 at 18:01 +0200, Takashi Iwai wrote: > > At Sun, 19 Jul 2009 10:35:21 -0500, > Ted T.
