Right, so after many attempts I got the timing on the puzzle. What is meant to happen is every time you input the right sequence, David nods to confirm this. So you ring 3 times in quick succession and he nods. Now, according to the person in the tavern (Incidentally, you cannot skip the Vivianne meeting even if you do know the sequence since David won't confirm the sequence) he says:
Ring 3 times, then wait a second.
Ring 2 times, then wait a second.
Finally, ring once and the gate should open.
GoG haven't quite nailed this, but it is possible to do. What you have to do is:
Once David nods his head to confirm the sequence, take note of how quickly he nods his head, it will bob up and down about three times. As soon as his head bounces up the first time, ring twice and he will nod again, repeat to complete the sequence and open the gate.
So, the 1 second wait is reduced to a 0.1 second wait. :S
