Try to detach the streaming pd from the soundcard (if thats possible)
with -nodac, -noadc or -nosound
I suggest using 16bit mode (the 8 bit seems to be broken ..() ) or float.
Unluckily I can not reproduce the problem with my setup, but
if you have different soundcards in the computers you are using, there is
the possibility that they constantly get out  of sync.
e.g. the es1370 AFAIK can't do 44100, but only a sample rate close to
that,...
