AFAICS there is no code that enforces the 179s restriction.

And why are you using a separate wallclock timer instead of the sample
count?  Does the higher resolution result in a noticeable improvement?

How should userspace detect streams whose sample clock is not
synchronous with this wall clock, such as digital inputs?
