Thanks, looks mostly good. I'll point out a few small issues below. Since it's been already many months since you submitted these patches, please let me know if during that time you have lost interest to finish off this work (it would be understandable). > @@ -125,6 +125,8 @@ typedef enum pa_core_hook { > PA_CORE_HOOK_CARD_PROFILE_AVAILABLE_CHANGED, > PA_CORE_HOOK_PORT_AVAILABLE_CHANGED, > PA_CORE_HOOK_PORT_LATENCY_OFFSET_CHANGED, > + PA_CORE_HOOK_SINK_LATENCY_OFFSET_CHANGED, > + PA_CORE_HOOK_SOURCE_LATENCY_OFFSET_CHANGED, A cosmetic note about the hook list ordering: I prefer different grouping - e.g. all sink hooks should be together. > @@ -314,6 +319,11 @@ pa_sink* pa_sink_new( > else > s->port_latency_offset = 0; > > + if (data->latency_offset) > + s->latency_offset = data->latency_offset; > + else > + s->latency_offset = 0; This can be replaced with just s->latency_offset = data->latency_offset; without any changes in behaviour.

The code in the patch doesn't work correctly if, for example, the initial usec is 1000, the port latency offset -2000 and the sink latency offset is 2000. The final usec should be unchanged (1000), because the two offsets undo each other, but this code results in the final usec being 2000.
