do you have a (probably incomplete) list of "all that"?
it might help getting rid of it.

When using qjackctl you not only need to close a window, you need to
stop jackd and restart it, to change the latency.
It doesn't matter for an app like Qtractor, since the latency
compensation for audio tracks anyway won't get adjusted to the new
latency.
Using different audio applications the behaviour isn't consistent. IOW
the Linux approach to use several apps instead a one-in-all app doesn't
always work for Linux audio.
