+Control the size and duration of the PulseAudio buffer. A small buffer
+gives more control, but requires more frequent updates.
+
+@option{buffer_size} specifies size in bytes while
+@option{buffer_duration} specifies duration in milliseconds.
+
+When both options are provided then the highest value is used
+(duration is recalculated to bytes using stream parameters). If they
+are set to 0 (which is default), the device will use the default
+PulseAudio duration value. By default PulseAudio set buffer duration
+to around 2 seconds.
