There is no guarantee a single call to pa_stream_peek every
timer_period microseconds can read a recording stream faster
than the data gets produced at the source. Let qpa_read try to
drain the recording stream.
To reproduce the problem:
Start qemu with -audiodev pa,id=audio0,in.mixing-engine=off
On the host connect the qemu recording stream to the monitor of
a hardware output device. While the problem can also be seen
with a hardware input device, it's obvious with the monitor of
a hardware output device.
In the guest start audio recording with audacity and notice the
slow recording data rate.
