this is a 15 year old problem that looks like it will never be fixed. It is usually noticed when playing midi to the click (audio or midi). Zoom into the notes and you will see that the notes are 20 to 60 samples ahead of the actual played time (discounting player error and jitter). When you dig further you will see that Steinberg have decided not to tackle it any further. Their initial approach is to suggest using different timestamp methods for various drivers. However, these solutions do not work. Its basically 2 time clocks drifting at the low level and is probably beyond Steinberg. In their defence, if it effects Cubase it affects most other DAWS.
