Comment 4 for bug 1090546

It would probably be safest to default this to off, but make it available. Unless there are statistics available to show that the majority of users have controllers that would not be bothered by this, the safest route is to maintain the current behavior. I myself use a controller with rotary knobs for pitch, so there's no sync problem for me. Someone with fader-style controls would find this a problem, though.
