Backport of #24597
Kodi can supervise the sink for being stuck, which means: if you open a sink with 160 ms buffer and it does not move while eating more than twice of the buffer's audio data, it is considered a bug. Sadly - there is a whole lot of broken firmwares out there, one of the leards: Ugoos. Which is the reason I make disabled by default. That means that FireTV Cube 3rd Gen and others would need to enable this - once again - via an advanced settings.
This is a backport towards Nexus as thie "good meant" supervising by default caused regresions, on you guessed it, broken firmware or semi-broken firmware (if you consider 300 ms off-sync semi-broken ;-)). Use the same "opt-in" as in master / v21.
