i'm quite used using it with mutiple sound devices...

http://www.asio4all.com/

was i doing something wrong? i mean that's the power of asio for all i think,
isn't it?

if i use it on single devices usually double stereo channels becomes un-usable
(at least for me),
so if i want to split headphones and master, i cant do that,
wheras i could do that with native ASIO drivers, like behringer for BCD3000 but
it's not working for me anymore on win7 64bit (even if i have the right drivers
installed)

soundcards with asio4all on win7 64bit

It's my understanding that ASIO (and PortAudio using ASIO) only supports
opening one sound device at a time. I'm not sure why it's even letting you
start two devices, but that may explain why it's dying. Since you're using
Win7, can you try using WASAPI and see if that causes the same issue?

Bug description:
  when i activate the cue (headphones) button, everything goes fine till
  at a certain moment, the sound starts sparkling and cracking, looks
  like the audio buffer reaches its limit and crashes. after a while the
  sounds get back good in hadphones but with a huge delay (like half a
  second maybe or something like that) so you're not able anymore to
  mixxx your tracks easilly.

  luckily the master output goes fine instead (no sparkling at all)!! :)
  so people when i play don't get it :D

  i have also problems using BCD3000 native asio drivers. they don't seem to
work with mixxx on windows7 64bit
