[pulseaudio-discuss] Regarding latency of pulseaudio

[Thomas George C]

What is the latency and configured latency that is being displayed in pulseaudio via pactl list sinks? It is observed that these parameters value is less in pulseaudio version 9 and more in pulseaudio version 15 for module-alsa-sink, checked while playing same stream using paplay. Example:  version 9 -  Latency: 22429 usec, configured 23219 usec                   version 15 - Latency: 79711 usec, configured 92879 usec It's observed that values are too high in pulseaudio 15 version. is this the actual latency introduced by the module-alsa-sink? or overall pulseaudio ? Is there a way to measure the latency introduced by pulseaudio in a file playback?
