> But I am experiencing some horrible clicking and the sound is distorted. As I don't know too much about the mechanics of audio buffers, does anybody have any tips or insight on why this occurs?
 
I would double-check that the sample format is what you think it is and I would inspect the source code sources I mention to see how they go about things.  Does your AudioThruEngine  run in user mode or kernel mode?  I don't program at kernel level on the Mac (well, OK, I hacked a keyboard driver once) so I can offer no specific advice, but I know I had problems with the various channel formats that CoreAudio requires user mode code to support in its IOProc until (a) I got my head around it, and (b) I found the relevant audio hardware to test on.  Well, virtual hardware actually, Jack and SoundFlower, plus a bit of help from customers with up-market hardware.  You are probably in for some fun driving the more esoteric multi-channel devices.
 
If you're still not getting anywhere, feeding a pure sine wave through your 'device' and inspecting the waveform you get back might give you some clues.
