Makes sense. My thinking was that I could possibly get lower latency and

how ALSA was designed.
Channel count is never going to affect latency unless you are do much
processing that dealing with N times more channels takes you over the edge
of what your CPU can do in a given time interval. While that's not
impossible, it's also not likely.
