I'm inclined to think you are correct.  On another forum that I frequent,
somebody had complained that he was getting sea-sick warbling when 
synching the
delay on his Boss GT-8 to Ableton.  I ran a bunch of experiments syncing my
GT-8's effects, including delay, to my E-mu PX-7 and it worked perfectly.  
So
my suspicion was that Ableton's MIDI Clock wasn't stable, although I don't 
have
Ableton so I couldn't test that theory directly.
