Comment (by csnover):

 The ScummVM audio buffer size is
 [http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/User_Manual/Appendix:_Config_file_description
 "configurable as an advanced preference"] in ScummVM 1.10 by directly
 editing the ScummVM configuration file, but the real problem here is
 simply the lack of optimisations. An increased buffer size only helps if
 enough samples can be generated faster than real time to offset generation
 of samples that cannot be generated at real time within the buffering
 window. Without optimisations, even a 2.3GHz Core i7 cannot always
 generate samples fast enough to avoid buffer underflows.
