> How can I get the best of both worlds: smooth audio with solid video?

You need a monitor, video card, and drivers that support the Nvidia "G-Sync" or AMD "FreeSync" standard. I believe recent Nvidia "blob" drivers for Linux do support this. With this technology, MAME is able to set the monitor to any refresh rate from 30 to 120 FPS, including oddball ones like Pac-Man's 60.60606060 FPS. This allows perfect audio with perfect video.

Otherwise it is not possible to simultaneously solve audio and video, unfortunately.
