Ideally you want to tweak all together latency-time (size of writes to the
audio card) buffer-time (the buffer accumulation before starting audio, the
added pipeline latency) but also the thresholds. This all play together,
with 20ms, you only have 2 writes buffering to the audio card. It makes it
a little fragile. Ideally I try to maintain 3 or 4 units of buffer.

The lower the latency in GStreamer, the higher the CPU, be aware. You may
also move the ring buffer thread onto deadline scheduler, that will also
help. If that still not enough, best is to move to jack or pipewire audio
daemons.
