I discussed this briefly, there are a bunch of HDMI parameters that ALSA
does not expose. For example in the HDA driver, the ELD parameters that
report audio/video latencies are just printed out on the console and are not
provided to the apps. PA could make sure of this information to provide a
finer granularity, the hardware is not capable for delay resolution lower
than a video frame.

and make sure  that things work properly in PA ;-).
I'll check internally.
