Roman you're right, a -noaudio Pd doesn't sync with a device and therefore it can not have sync problems. Thanks for pointing to this. It did not cross my mind to do signal tests with -noaudio but it may be a good idea, to exclude sync troubles in any case. Pd started with -noaudio is the same as Pd with input- and output- devices disabled, and this can also be done with an audio-dialog message.
