Thanks for your reply. 
But the pulseaudio version(0.9.10) I am using, does not support "tsched"
option at all.
And I don't think I am using the timer based scheduling option. 

I remember seeing a *FIXME* in the mmap_write which said "/* FIXME:
Maybe we can do something to keep this memory block a little bit longer
around? */", which I suspect is causing the hiccup in my audio(not sure
though). This FIXME is  removed in the later version of pulseaudio which
has tsched implemented. I was wondering if I implement the tsched in the
pulseaudio version I am currently using, will help fix my audio playback
problem?

Thanks and Regards,
