That's at odds with the fact that pulseaudio is incapable of exposing the audio reference clocks from sound hardware, which is a fundamental aspect of digital audio engineering. Its design doesn't even acknowledge the existence of an audio clock.

That's fine for basic audio but completely excludes any higher demand application, including high quality A/V sync. Best you can do is work around and best effort guess.

My point wasn't that pulseaudio is flawless, it's just that it has a much worse name than it deserves.
