It's up to you how much your write. However, it is definitely a good idea to write at least what has been requested (or is reqturned by pa_stream_get_writable_size()). If you write less you won't get another request callback for that, so you might experience drop outs. You may also write more, which often makes a lot of sense, i.e. if your app works with a different block size. If you write more than requested it will be buffered on the server side. Summary: writing less: seldomly makes sense writing exactly what requested: makes sense if your app's block size is 1 sample writing more: makes sense if your app's block size is > 1 sample.
