yes, the emulation is more accurate for games using the IREM sound board, at least in cases where they use the drums which were entirely absent before. This is very evident in Horizon for which I recorded a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v717E7FVuPo the video is slightly before 163 so the clicking is worse there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9R3m41Rsn4E is a much older video without the drums for comparison purposes.
unfortunately the clicking and popping seem to be a side-effect of the discrete system running, I don't know if it will be resolved at some point.
The games actually seem to be completely broken in the current SVN builds, so I can't comment on if things have improved since 163. *edit* since restored to working state.
