Does it have to be that way? I mean - if a media player can keep track
of the time of a movie (with and without sound) then wouldn't it be
possible for other applications like emulators to keep accurate time?

I do not know how the time is handled in QEMU, but I wrote code some
years ago that monitored itself with gettimeofday() and adjusted the
drift on the fly.
