Input latency slowly increases over days in multi-room mode

[ChestersGarage]

Describe the problem
I thought we had already created an issue for this, but I couldn't find anything for it. It has been discussed in the following issues:
#333
#294
#354

Playback latency slowly creeps upward over days of server device uptime. After about a week, the latency will be nearly 20 seconds.

To Reproduce
Allow a fleet to remain operational without changes or restarts to application containers or the devices for several days. Latency will be noticeably higher after a day or two.

Expected behavior
Playback latency should remain consistent (~2 seconds).

I have the same. With just one device "lagg" increases by the date.
