cheesy video from google on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnDK17zP9BI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnDK17zP9BI tl;dr: it's easier to increase buffer sizes to fix underruns than to fix driver foo randomly disabling interrupts for too long. That, along with not having fast-paths to bypass large parts of the stack (mixer, resampler, audio effects, etc...), and bam, high latency.
