I guess therein lies some of the fundamental difference with how I was previously thinking. I figured I could just ask the driver/device for some basic defaults that should work but, instead, I should *tell* it what basic defaults I can live with. (Set buffer size near 1s and period size near 125ms.) Once I've set these after the sample rate I expect that a call to get the period size (in frames, according to documentation) will give me a general buffer size for me to use. I'm going to try this stuff out on our production hardware (all kinds of different devices and drivers) and see how it behaves. As long as there are no xruns we should be golden.
