Yes, when speaking into the mike I can hear the output on the speakers.
The sound quality is reasonable for 8kHz S16_LE and there are no sound
errors (e.g. no clicks or similar).

Here you can see that PA uses the "hw" device.
(It just tries to use the "front" device in the beginning which fails.
The "hw" device is opened successfully after that (see log above).)

In my tests I first used the "default" device which uses the PA plugin.
The test clearly showed that poll() returns with POLLIN even though far
less than avail_min frames are available for reading.
Hence I suspect that there is a *bug* somewhere in the pulseaudio code
(either the plugin or the daemon).

In order to show that my code is working fine and the erroneous poll
behavior does not occur when PA is not used, I also tested with the "hw"
device.
The result, as mentioned, it that the POLLIN event is correctly returned
after at least avail_min frames are available.

In short:

* test with "default" uses PA: erroneus poll() behavior, BUG
* test with "hw" does *not* use PA: everything works fine

Yes.
