Increasing it can help in your situation.

I did check activity monitor, and initial playback of any file format swamps the cpu of the mac, using 100% and more of the CPU. That would be interesting if I only heard noise at the start of playback, but it's intermitant and perisistent throughout the listening session.
More soon and thanks for the ideas.
