I stumbled across this site while reading the LAD list some time ago:
http://www.q2s.ntnu.no/~asbjs/ldas/ldas.html
"LDAS is primarily developed to be used as a tool for research into
distributed multimedia interaction and perceived quality of service. It is
aimed at demanding applications where very low latency transmission of high
quality multichannel audio is needed. "
They are expecting to release GPL'd software fairly shortly - you may want
to try to get in touch with the author.

I have also been searching for a solution to IP audio
tranport
mechanisms (over ethernet) as well, but have only found cobranet and
ethersound as Dan mentioned, both of which appear to be propietary
formats. I experimented with using jack.udp a while back, but it seems
like it would hardly be sufficient for transferring multiple channels of
audio (say 16 like cobranet). Perhapse the linux community can start to
develop and open-source set of standards that could be used for
transporting uncompressed audio over ethernet, perhaps using regular
ethernet adapters?
Has anybody heard of ethernet striping? A way to combine ethernet cards
to increase throughput? I found this on the cinerella site,
http://heroinewarrior.com/firehose.php3
Could we write a protocol for transporting audio that wouldn't get
bogged down by traffic from other protocols, or would this even be a
problem (I'm still learning about how IP works...)
