I've had out of sync audio before, as well. When that happened I usually just encoded the video with another application and it worked out fine. It probably is more likely a bug in the application than the settings, since the settings have worked out on every other video why wouldn't they work in this case?
As for what vbv-buffsize affects... I haven't the slightest clue -- I got that setting from reading a couple different threads of people experimenting with H.264 encoding for XBMC. In fact, half of the settings I am using is from extensive research of what other people have done. If some of the settings are outdated or are pointless, then please let me know and I will look into it.
However, I think I remember doing some tests with and without this setting, and I think setting it the maxrate to 5000 solved major skipping problems at high resolutions (when I say high resolutions, I mean the maximum safe resolution that XBMC can handle H.264 files -- 720x400, 720x384, 704x400, etc..)
Anyways, you could always do a test encode with 0.92 with the vbv settings and compare it to your encode you did without the settings. That would answer your question...
