The difference is in the buffering that is done in the audio device
driver on your computer. There should be no difference between
mp3 and wav format though. There might be a difference between
audio files that contain more data per second that others. For
instance an 8 bit 22050 mono audio file as compared to a 16 bit
44100 stereo file. There is a function called setItem in
aflibDevFile that allows one to set an item called
AFLIB_DEV_ITEM_BUFFER that will change the amount of buffering
done.
