Or it is a random value? If an underrun happens inside PulseAudio (i.e. an application doesn't provide data fast enough), the missing audio is replaced with silence. The issues with rewinds were about monitor sources and resampling. If I understood correctly, your source material is in 48000 Hz and Jack is configured with that rate too, so there's no need for resampling, and you haven't mentioned recording from a monitor source either, so there should be no reason to be concerned about rewinds. If rewinds happen, they shouldn't cause any glitches. But if you're curious, the monitor source bug causes short chunks of audio to be duplicated in the recording stream. I haven't seen concrete examples of what kind of glitches resamplers can have, but my intuition is that one sample in the audio stream might have a significant adjustment towards zero, and a few samples after that might have slightly wrong values. -- Tanu https://www.patreon.com/tanuk
