One USB frame is 1 ms, but the number of samples per USB frame varies
if the sample rate isn't an integer multiple of 1000.  E.g., at
44100 Hz, each USB frame has 44 samples, with one out of ten having
45.

I don't know what happens when we constrain the period size to 1 ms,
which would be exactly 44.1 frames.  The period size in frames gets
rounded to an integer, doesn't it?
