At least with the zita tools this will be defined and stable,
so you can measure and then compensate for it. In many cases
it won't matter much as long as you don't split a stereo signal
over two interfaces.
BTW, the page on the jack wiki pointed to earlier is
completely out of date. Just ignore whatever is said
there.
Could (or should) Studio Controls start zita automatically when
connecting more than one soundcard? There's a setting in Studio Controls
'Bridge USB devices to jack when plugged in' that's on by default and
maybe does exactly that.
But if so, it's not clear from the dialog whether this is done via zita
or other measures. The manual at
https://ovenwerks.github.io/studio-controls/extra-devices.html doesn't
say this either, but the overview at
https://ovenwerks.github.io/studio-controls/index.html states that
Studio Controls "Allows multiple audio devices to use JACK at once".
So far my humble testing confirms that, for which I'm very grateful.
