Richard,
Not knowing the details of the exact architecture you are using... do you
have the option of locking playback to a central "time server" so that
individual machines can drop frames as necessary to ensure that the synch
was never lost. (Sorta like a mini, network-local, version of RTSP)
curiously again,
