The Windows version from Creative is still maintained, though it's been a 
while since the last update, I think. OpenAL Soft just replaces the open 
source OpenAL SI. Although you can use OpenAL Soft in Windows if you want, 
you shouldn't have to switch away from Creative's drivers (and you likely 
shouldn't switch if you're going to distribute your app, since other people 
will be using Creative's).

Just to be sure, are you using buffer queues with at least 2 or 3 buffers? How 
much are you reading in per buffer?
