           Summary: CoreAudio Device latency configuration
        QA Contact: [email protected]
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Mac OS X (All)
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
            Status: NEW
           Version: unspecified
         Component: modules
           Product: PulseAudio

I have been looking into the high latency when using PulseAudio as input and
output on OS X with CoreAudio.
It seems like the default fixed latency of 250ms is used, which ends up being a
total latency of 500ms. I tried lowering the latency using PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC
but this seems to have no effect. It is however possible to increase the
latency using this method.
I noticed that setting the PA_SINK_DYNAMIC_LATENCY and
PA_SOURCE_DYNAMIC_LATENCY flags in module-coreaudio-device.c will reduce the
latency to about 10ms. Perhaps there should be a way to enable dynamic latency,
as this seems to reduce the latency by a significant amount.
Or perhaps there is a reason to not use dynamic latency that I am unaware of?
