With that chip, I've usually had to set the rpi to USB 1.1 speeds to get
anything worthwhile out of it. That also limits the network if that's
an issue for you.

Ah yes, I forgot to mention a bunch of stuff.
- I'm already using the force-USB-1.1 hack in cmdline.txt
- I've followed the guidelines at
http://wiki.linuxaudio.org/wiki/raspberrypi
- I'm using the autostatic repo for jackd and such.
- The base distro is the most recent (January 2014, IIRC) Raspbian Wheezy distro
Maybe this chip just sucks, but I'm certain that I've gotten good sound out of
this exactly USB adapter before on x86 systems.
