Come on, do the very simple math there.  IRQ latency == 5 msec,
but only 4 msec queued.  5 - 4 = 1.  This is not string theory.

That obviously means that when you get the max IRQ latency, you
are guaranteed to have 1 msec of dropout.  And you're likely to
start getting it before that max latency too, given other isues.

And to be excessively clear here, that 1 ms dropout is a bad
thing, and entirely attributable to insufficient, and single,
buffering ... that is, to bugs in the driver providing those
URBs.
