before reading the data, take the current timestamp (with clock_gettime)
and subtract snd_pcm_delay() for the stream (see the API docs for
snd_pcm_delay() for more details).
The accuracy of the returned value depends on the driver/hw's ability to
report accurate delay values.
PS Alternate strategy is to use SND_PCM_TSTAMP_MMAP mode, in which
you can query (with snd_pcm_htimestamp()) the timestamp of
last period elapsed event. See the alsa-lib PCM API docs for
details. With certain drivers/hw, this is the only way to get
accurate estimates for delay.
