The attached patch does this. The patch is roughly the fix > proposed in http://pulseaudio.org/ticket/288 Yes the same issue happens with the loopback when capturing data from BT or some RTP source. The latency on a standard ALSA device varies less wildly but the adjustments are still arguable in terms of audio quality. I posted a rate adjustment as well a while ago which was never merged, but that's not enough. We'd need some averaging to prevent jittery adjustments. It's been on my TODO list for some time but if you want to go ahead feel free :-) -Pierre
