I tried to do the same thing, and had similar problems with the
AudioQueue,
i ended up just copying the received data from the network into a
ringbuffer
and use the ringbuffer in the output unit callback,
this works very well, the latency on the LAN is less that 50ms (i have
not measured it)
with this approach you get complete control over latency.

Hello,
I have written a super-simple 'audio conference' program in C that
uses AudioQueue to record linear PCM audio, send it over the
network, and play it back on a different computer.
The problem is latency -- even though I set the AudioQueue buffer
size equivalent to 1/20th of a second of audio, my AudioQueue
callbacks are getting called in spurts every second or so, so I
don't get to touch the audio coming in from the microphone until
quite long after it was spoken.
This periodic spurt of callbacks is also happening in the simplified
case of just recording to a file, or playing back from a file.
It's as if the layer under AudioQueue is using a much longer buffer.
For the heck of it, I tried using AudioDeviceSetProperty() to set
kAudioDevicePropertyBufferSize to something very low, and this did
not help.
Is there something I have missed or is AudioQueue not the right
interface to use for this kind of low-latency application? Any
suggestions?
Thanks so much to anyone who can help!
