Hey, if you look in the "Sound" tab of DCP-o-matic preferences, does it say "Play sound via PulseAudio", or something different?

It says "PulseAudio". Also, something that may be helpful to know is that if I play the source content on my
ubuntu system (the same system I'm running DCP-O-MATIC) using VLC, it is in sync.

@carl some cleanups on 2862-latency but I'm guessing that pa somehow mis-reports latency. VLC has some comments about pa_stream_get_latency() not working in vlcpulse.c

@carl also more-abstract{,2} branch for moving some more RtAudio-specific stuff behind AudioBackend
