It can fluctuate by up to an hour but often just 10 to 20 minutes.  I am not running dual boot on this drive but I did on my other disk with Mint 17.3  No problems with that, perfect timekeeping.  I will have play with the time/date formula to see if it is that at fault.  I do like to use my own semi custom format as taken from the strftime webpage https://www.foragoodstrftime.com/

I'll check out that PA equaliser tutorial.  I have a feeling I may have already given it a try though.  Thank you.

With the time... is it fluctuating up to 1 hour, or always behind by
exactly 1 hour?  I know people that dual boot with Windows get that
issue as Windows wants the system clock to be corrected for daylight
savings and your timezone - but Linux wants UTC.       

The best equaliser I've found for PA is the LADSPA based one, rather
than the qpaeq one.  I wrote a guide up on installing it at this comment
aaaages back, but it should work with Mint no issue...
