Comment (by jyavenard):

 "I called them alsa-frames because they are not the same as frames in
 mythtv"

 They are!

 That's why they are called frames instead of samples.
 frame = sample * channels (just like in ALSA)

 So when you do:
 channels * output_bytes_per_frame
 you are actually doing:
 channels * channels * sample.

 I have no doubt that there could be a problem, but your analysis is wrong
 and should it fix anything it's a side effect of your incorrect
 calculations.
