+ Might be a soundcard problem, if it only comes in longer intervals.
+ Your soundcard does not keep it's sampling frequency accurately
+ enough, which results in audio and video
+ getting out of sync and xine has to compensate.
+ Maybe switching to different drivers (alsa to oss or vise-versa)
+ can help here.

+ Another, whole different possibility is that you have some background
+ process running which is messing with the clock (like some ntp client -
+ chronny, ntpd, ...).
