No, my idea was to comment the two lines that deal with
snd_pcm_hw_params_set_periods_integer(), as I said.
i.e., comment these two lines:
<snip>
if ((ret = snd_pcm_hw_params_set_periods_integer(pcm_handle, hwparams)) < 0)
goto finish;
</snip>

Ah, that's interesting. Apparently your sound card does not support
integral number of periods. Weird thing. Could you please paste the
output of "pulseaudio -vvvv" with that minimal commenting change made?

It crashed? How? Please provide a "pulsaudio -vvvv" output for the
crash. And also a stack trace:
