I can see nothing obviously wrong with that code, but it's hard to  
examine it without being able to try it. If you can't figure it out on  
your own, could you prepare a complete reproducing example? Have you  
tried fading out only one patch or using smaller patch images to see  
if it's a performance issue?

Can you show how you play your sound? It may or may not be a bug -  
Pipmak by itself has no notion of "background audio of a node", it's  
up to you to start and stop your sound at the appropriate times.
