Also, dropping of late samples (samples before the read pointer) is done in 

gst-libs/gst/audio/gstaudioringbuffer.c:1514

/* segment too far ahead, writer too slow, we need to drop, hopefully UNLIKELY
*/
if (G_UNLIKELY (diff < 0)) {
  /* we need to drop one segment at a time, pretend we wrote a segment. */

This is done when calculating where in the ringbuffer the sample should be
inserted, the diff is compared with the current read pointer and the sample is
dropped when it is before the read pointer.
