I've been trying to reproduce this issue for the last couple weeks, and I'm somewhat happy to say it happens much, much less frequently now. Unfortunately, it still happens. It's now on the order of once every few hours on average instead of once every few minutes, but much less regularly -- only one afternoon has it happened more than once as I've been listening to music, and that afternoon it happened 3 or 4 times. I'm on pulseaudio 1:1.1-0ubuntu15.1 and kernel 3.2.0-32-generic now.
Anyway, that's made it much harder to test any fixes. Now that I've got a bit better idea of how it behaves lately, I'll turn off timer scheduling and report back after some time. I'm assuming the position_fix hack won't do anything, since my audio is 100% fine under alsa.
