I have tested 3 games.
Most noticeable in "Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn(RFEE01)" opening.

However, if Audio Throttle is ON, then it sounds smoothly no matter Framelimit is ON or OFF.

I don't think that's a bug... You see, Audio Throttle is what really matters in maintaining the correct speed in NGC and Wii games... It's FPS-Limiter works over the default emulator Frame Limiter, because by limiting the game by a property contained within it, you have a most precise emulation speed...
So, basically, if you use only the "Config" Frame Limiter, the emulator limits the speed by a default of either 25, 30, 50 or 60 FPS, according to the WHOLE game, while the Audio Throttle adapts to the situations, limiting the speed accordingly to the situation in-game.
I guess that's it...
Anyway... What's the point of having Audio Throttle OFF and still limit the FPS?

Some game needs audio throttle off and framelimit on to get video playback av sync. Such as Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn.

Try selecting "Limit using FPS" on the Config screen and see what happens...

And also, r5713 is not current... Try getting the latest... Still I don't think it's a bug...
