Thought a bit more about this overnight.

Since BBCiPlayer sync OK and flac files don't - the issue seems to be
processor related.

For live BBCiPlayer streams are delivered in 6 secs chunk - so processor
runs faad/lame to convert a 6 sec chunk which is then ready to send out-
processor then waits for next 6 sec chunk to arrive so has time to deal
with SLimp3.  
Flac files will be process by flac and lame but processor will try to
process whole source flac file (e.g. 3 minutes long)  in one go and so
processor will be very intensively used for a longer peiod compared to
the 6 sec chunk of BBCiPlayer.

I wonder whether changing the LMS default transcode chain of 2 processes
Flac and Lame and pipes - to a single ffmpeg process might be easier on
the processor.

Do you have (or can install)  ffmpeg (aka avconv) on your system which
has LMS ?

For completeness - please confirm sync is OK for both BBCiPLayer live
and On-demand ?
