That's a known problem with the method I'm using. It's not easy to
improve (it's still an active research topic).

Yes and no. You don't need the jitter buffer to compensate for packet
losses or out-of-order. However, you'll have to compensate for the fact
that both ends probably don't sample at the same time (the jitter buffer
could do it for you). That being said, TCP for VoIP is a **BAD** idea.
