Title:
  Sound output starts several seconds late using DisplayPort with
  [AMD/ATI] Tahiti XT HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 7970 Series] [1002:aaa0]

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I am using simultaneously :
  -  an audio headset connected to the analog audio output,
  -  a DisplayPort cable to connect my display to my 'AMD Tahiti XT [Radeon HD 7970 ...]' graphics + sound card.

  Using the 'Sound' panel of 'gnome-control-center', I systematically
  get following behaviour for sound output :

  -  If I choose the 'Line Out - Built-in Audio' device, the sound output comes immediately :
     For example, inside the 'Test Speakers' window, the correct sound systematically starts as soon as I hit any 'Test' button (under 'Front Left' or 'Front Right').

  -  But if I choose the 'HDMI / DisplayPort - Tahiti XT HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 7970 Series]' device, the sound output starts several seconds LATE :
     For example, inside the 'Test Speakers' window, the sound starts at the end of the 2nd time I hit any 'Test' button (under 'Front Left' or 'Front Right').  Then continuous sound is correct and in sync.
     But after approx. 10s of silence (no sound to output), new sound output starts several seconds LATE again.
