Hi,
I want to capture the audio stream of my TV with my PCI-E Toslink sound
card and play it back on my usb XLR soundcard. The reason why I do that
is to use my own music boxes rather than the TV speakers. With toslink +
XLR I do not have problems with ground loops etc.

I am using the pulseaudio loopback module with its default
configuration. The problem is, that the delay between picture and sound
is about one second off, and the longer I wait, the more delay it gets
(30 seconds and more). It is no usable like this.

I tried to play with the latencies of source, sink and the tv delay
itself without sucess. I also tried streaming with pacat directly as
described here:
https://thelinuxexperiment.com/fix-pulseaudio-loopback-delay/

I also tried to change different parameters of the loopback module or
the sources/sinks, but that did not help. I never changed any global
pulseaudio config to avoid larger configuration issues. The CPU usage of
pulseaudio is at 3% with the loopback module

Can anyone help me to get rid of this lag?

Hi Nico,

which version of PA are you using? Can you provide logs?

Hi Georg,
oh sure I completely forgot:

pulseaudio 11.1-1 (Arch Linux)
uname -a: Linux zebes 4.14.15-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Jan 23 21:49:25
UTC 2018 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Here is a logfile:
LANG=C pulseaudio -vvvv --log-time=1 > ~/pulseverbose.log 2>&1
https://gist.github.com/NicoHood/85976f426e1621e599253ee1a95230dd

Regards
Nico

This is weird. It looks like the source sample rate is so much higher
than the sink rate that module-loopback can't adapt. No idea why
this happens. Does it work with another input?
