With which sound card?

Use vesa:vidix to have the mode switched, vidix doesn't set video modes, as was already told here not only once.

Those depend on your configuration file/command line options.

This perhaps depends on video card, e.g. with my Intel 945GM there is no such a problem even if I run it with -msglevel all=9.

It is possible, you may put the delays in "vo_vesa.c".
