[PD] Pd-extended 0.42.5 Lucid - Audio Settings / Delay - not working!

[Ingo]

No Bernardo,

I get the same or even better latencies. Down to 6 ms with a very complex
patch. Alsa is giving me more problems like digital A/D/A sync errors.

As far as I know alsa is using oss anyway. Don't know if I'm wrong here.
