A couple years ago I was trying the same thing on a tower PC. My
investigation back then lead me to a kernel mailing list archive that
said the two (low latency and ATI's graphics acceleration) were
incompatible. This might have extended to nVidia too. It's been so
long that I don't remember the details anymore.
G'luck...
