Fixed glitchy audio in case of Exclusive mode, Polling mode, 24-bit packed format and USB DAC as output device. Other audio devices using the same combination could be affected too.
The reason of glitches is periodic underrun which can only be fixed by using paUtilFixedHostBufferSize mode which is trying to fill the available host buffer more rapidly. As a bonus paUtilFixedHostBufferSize results in less CPU usage as it will consume the whole user buffer per pass.
