Comment(by jkillwinter):

 After a little more exerimentation I found that setting minreq to 0 made
 wonders. Now I can get 50ms latency without any problems.

 {{{
     ba.tlength = pa_usec_to_bytes(50*1000, &ss);
     ba.minreq = pa_usec_to_bytes(0, &ss);
     ba.maxlength = pa_usec_to_bytes(50*1000, &ss);
 }}}

 Still, I think the proper way to do this (is it this way?) should be
 mentioned on the latency page.
