According to the man page, the value you write with setsockopt is multiplied
by two by the kernel and 1024 is the minimum you can set, leading to 2048
bytes of buffer. (In fact, in my tests the number returned by getsockopt
never went below 4906, don't know why it is such a weird number.)

Yes, they are discarded. This only happens when the connection is 
temporary lost,
so the audio is old anyway by the time it is discarded.
