That would then affect *all* apps using PA via ALSA (which seems
to be the only way)...

I still don't understand the purpose of all this. An application
that can't use Jack can still connect to it using the ALSA jack
plugin, you don't need PA for this. A quick test here shows
that the latency in that case is as solid as it gets.
