At least some drivers seem to allow a single period and those which don't would correct us anyway. Moreover, Pulseaudio with tsched sets this frequently.

I'm afraid, but this patch is not enough. At least chunk_size should be less than buffer_size otherwise you'll get underrun immediately.

Yep, period=1 makes sense only for the system doing scheduling by itself.
