Did you build bsnes yourself from source, or did you install it from some kind of software center or package manager?

What version of bsnes are you running?

In Settings → Drivers, what audio driver are you using?

bsnes runs games at a reasonable speed, by limiting itself to the audio output rate or the video output rate. By default, it synchronises to the audio output (you'll see "synchronise" is ticked in my screenshot above). If the audio driver is set to "None", it can't be synced with, and you'll have to sync to the video driver instead.

On Linux, the safest settings are probably the defaults: use the PulseAudio driver, tick "Synchronise" under "Audio", untick "Dynamic rate". For video, use OpenGL 3, untick Synchronise. Restart bsnes after changing any settings, to make sure the settings take effect, and then you should have smooth audio at a reasonable rate.
