PCM audio in all games has a lag/desynch issue, it is not remotely game specific. Gericom is quite aware and has some ideas for a fix but its going to be tough. Pressing X right now will force the audio to sync a little better.
It works however it desynch very quickly right after few seconds and sometime when are 2 channels of bgm (after few minutes) can't sync correctly, but with some step. sfx sync ok after x pressed. I tested on patched sonic advance 2 - music plants stage. (It sounds like there are two layered tracks with some sets of channels, and they have the same trumpets moment)

There are 2 different issues here. One is just a general delay between gb and direct sound channels and the other increased desync of direct sound channels when samples are dropped or so. The latter of these is reset by X

Thank you Gericom for your wonderful work. I do seem to be having an issue though. I loaded a rom and it crashed. I restarted the system and yet now every rom I try boots up the game that crashed. I have tried various things including deleting the offending rom but the issue persists. It's like it's in the cache or memory or something. Can anyone help? Thanks!

Sorry, I should have mentioned this is on a DSi XL with the latest TWiLight Menu++ and GBARunner2_arm7dldi_dsi.

The list is not fully accurate, I had to add Spyro Superpack - Season of Ice + Season of Flame, while Arthur and the Minimoys is here but it's actually 16mb (Arther and the Invisibles is shown as 16mb on the site).
For now, I will just be checking the expanded Pokemon hacks I have on hand already to see if they are now supported.

Note that 32MB games can just work fine on DS with 4MB memory as long as they don't have their code in the high region.

I just tested gbarunner for mario and luigi super star saga, and the music, oh dear god the music gets horribly desynced. As in one of the speakers is clearly playing out of sync, or seems that way. going to double check. Other than that, no longer needed to disable the main memory cache it seems.

Yep. main cache can be enabled. But like I said, music is definitely desynced on one of the speakers.

I noticed the same while playing any of the gen 3 Pokémon games.

correction about main cache, still needs to be disabled, first fight causes the game to soft lock.

I actually recorded it.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=10W5Su_hPEQu-TN2ts0TUPkWfhGXMbBQk anything with "bad" is the gbarunner version. I couldn't get the audio to perfectly sync sadly. And forgot to remove the intro. But it's the title screen, the attack cut scene. And Mario's house theme.
