Oh boy, audio stuttering. This is the main problem I’m having with the A04.

Audio stuttering varies a lot depending on which core I am using. The most demanding core I’ve been trying to get working is snes. There are several snes cores. I had the best luck with the snes9x variants, such as snes9x2010. The bsnes ones are all unusable.

I built the cores using `libretro-super` as originally suggested [here](https://forum.clockworkpi.com/t/trying-to-get-retroarch-to-work-on-a06/7442/9).

Also, _I only get smooth performance in windowed mode_ for snes. I haven’t tried less demanding emulations like gba yet. Those might work better.

I tried enabling GLES for compilation, as suggested [here](https://forum.clockworkpi.com/t/retroarch-windowed-vs-fullscreen-a04/7935/2), but I didn’t see any difference.

The next thing I might try is installing RetroArch using [snapd](https://forum.clockworkpi.com/t/retroarch-windowed-vs-fullscreen-a04/7935/3).
