Hi,

I never noticed this sound on my ST, maybe it depends on the tv monitor 
and the scart cable.

Anyway, if this click is due to centering the signal and we need a few 
frames when powering on to converge, isn't there a way to prefill the 
audio buffer or call the filters at init with somes empty sample values 
to simulate this init phase of the filter, but without playing the 
resulting buffer ?

Even if some ST had this kind of sound, I think people will complain if 
we get some click at startup ;  I'm afraid it will be associated to a 
bug in our code (even if it's not the case)
