I was experiencing too fast sound before in some wine apps and when using skype (although new skype's version switched to pulseaudio and that fixed the issue). Recently, after a long break, I discovered it again when using skype on wine. It is quite unusual, though, because sometimes it works correctly and sometimes not. In the middle of a call I can experience a sudden change to fast sound. It looks like the bug can be minimalised or even disappears when using this command to start an application:

"PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=60 name_of_your_app"

For example to start audacity I type:

"PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=60 audacity"

My OS: Ubuntu 14.10
Pulseaudio version: 4.0
