My back-of-the-envelope calculation, done by

latency through the Zoom is either exactly two seconds, or Ardour's
region start time resolution doesn't go to fractions of seconds.
i'm pretty sure that ardour's region start time is sample-accurate.
indeed, it is. it can be displayed in a variety of formats: timecode,
min:sec, BBT, sampletime. right click on any time display in ardour to
change the display mode.
Thanks!
That seems it'll be the easiest solution so far. Create a 1-sample impulse and stick
it on an Ardour track. Wire the L output channel of the Zoom to the R input channel. Arm a
track to record from the Zoom, then play the impulse. Then I just have to measure the
distance between them in Ardour using the sample display mode.
