All I can say is that it works at home (Debian Testing). Remotely testing
ALSA programs is not easy.

I guess that means we will have to fall back to the av_gettime-based
timestamp, probably with a call to know the delay to ensure A-V sync.

I looked the alpha-beta filtering algorithm: it is indeed very simple, much
simpler than the summary showed. It is not very satisfactory from a
mathematical standpoint, but I guess my favorite on-the-fly least-square
linear fit with an exponential moving average would not make people happy
about the calls to sqrt and exp in the middle of libavdevice.

Shall I work on a filtering function and submit it as a prerequisite patch?
