I believe this is not an audio-related problem but this might put you on 
track:

Not that I would use markers for this myself (I use the peaks of the 
wave representation of the tracks), but I just tested it myself, hitting 
the asterisk key while listening to the music and got a delay of just 2 
frames @25FPS with a low latency kernel.

The only thing I can think of that can make such big delay as 500 ms is 
that you use the "Use slow keys" setting in the accessibilities 
settings. You might want to open "System Settings" -> "Accessibility" 
and there select the "Keyboard Filters" and then have a look there. Bit 
it's weird if this is the problem because then everything you type would 
have the same delay. I hope you manage to fix it.
