I think this means decoding the mpeg-audio stream to PCM Raw Data, interpolate and reencode to mpeg audio ! Then you would not hear this ! 
Much work...

But first I'm searching for a way to get the stream in sync, and therefor I don't care if some errors can be heard afterwards, as long as audio and video are in sync...

If you drop a complete GOP (from I- frame to I-frame) then it should be no problem, and dropping a single B or P picture may also be possible, as long as the GOP structure remains intact - but anyway I prefer adding silence to the audio stream...
