The Maximum Latency is correctly set to 10ms in the LE Set Connected Isochronous Group Parameters command, and the controller reports the final latency as being 1992 us. This is the value that (after conversion to ms) qos.ucast.out.latency takes in the current implementation. num is defined as num = (qos.ucast.out.latency * 1000 / qos.ucast.out.interval), with interval being the ISO interval, 10000us and therefore num will be 0 in this case. As you can see the first packet is always sent, but after that none can be seen. Instead, the Host should send 1 packet every time this function is called. The timer related change below ensures that this function is triggered at every SDU interval. So, in the end, the Host will send 1 packet every SDU interval.

The main change that I made here is the value of the interval for the timer.
Before, it used to be set to qos.ucast.out.latency and I propose to change
it to qos.ucast.out.interval, so that the Host will send 1SDU packet on
every ISO Interval. I included the ucast/bcast qos update since I was
already updating this line of code. That is, I didn't want to send the patch
with "qos->ucast.out.interval" without differentiating between bcast and
ucast since it would've been wrong.
