Thank you very much for the patch!

I also was having loss of audio sync. This patch solved the problem.

Occasionaly will still delay the audio, but before the delay was something like 3-4 seconds, now the worst case that I have seen so far is a couple tens of milliseconds (very small and ok for music and films).

Tested on Arch linux, patch applied to the latest version of Pulseaudio on github (last commit Apr 19, 2018), zero problems applying the patch.
