(Play back to a null-sink and use module-loopback to connect null-sink.monitor to your real sink). For large delays it only works properly with timer based scheduling. With batch cards I have seen lots of error messages in the debug log at latencies > 2- 5 seconds, although the audio still seems to be OK. Regards Georg
