the audiooutputpulse code was mostly rewritten...
This removed all the issues like AV-Sync or buffer underrun. Those
issues existed due to the incorrect use of the pulseaudio API.

FooBar is working on that one.. The code is finished now.
Waiting to complete cleaning the changeset and will commit shortly.

He has spent a great deal of effort (mostly troubles) getting around
restrictions imposed by pulse. In particular, once pulse open the alsa
device, you can't change the sampling rate. And when pulse is given
the job to resample, all weird things start to occur.
So in the end, we do all the resampling in mythtv prior to feeding the
data to pulse.

I will see if we can merge anything you have that is of interest here ...
