This sounds like perhaps the driver buffer size wasn't matched to the Audio Buffer size in PowerSDR. This would cause some instability over time (especially after longer DPC events).
Note that you can not set the driver buffer size below the recommended size in the newer driver unless you are in Normal mode (as opposed to one of the Safe Mode settings).

The radio starts to sound choppy after 10 to 20 minutes with 96k sampling rate. Clicking the start button solves the problem but it happens again after another 10 minutes or so. With 48k sps it does not seem to occur. The radio had worked flawlessly untill I updated the "Flex-5000 Driver" to Ver.3.2. I both tried on-board and PCI bus connected firewire interface (both use TI chip) and the parameters are set as Tim suggested. DPC latency checker on the driver control panel shows around 1200us. Once I downgraded the driver to ver.3.0 and the problem disappered though it is not recommended by Flex to use the old driver with current firmware/PowerSDR.
