I reproduced it just fine. Please test my recent commit where I try to
address this.

Sure, it could be possible, but I would rather have it behaving well
rather than potentially ask the user to adjust something. Before the
changes, it was not behaving well in the sense that audio was not
continuous under what I consider even moderate loads. Now it does,
except still not some very heavy loads, and I exposed this edge case
you found. I do not yet claim all edge cases are resolved, but I hope
that it is better overall for the 80% of workloads where you want
frame-dropping. Let me know what you think of the results.
