I don't know exactly what you are trying to ask but there are several
options for creating more latency in a pipeline:

 - use bigger audio buffers (assuming the element extends GstAudioSink)
 - add elements that add latency (gstrtpjitterbuffer, ...)
 - play with ts-offset on the sinks (delays playback with an arbitrary
   amount)
 - set the delay property on the pipeline to something else than 0
   (adjust calculation of the base_time on elements and has therefore
   only meaningful results with non-live pipelines)
 - issue a custom latency event on the pipeline (no signal yet for this)
