The filters on hardware A/D and D/A filters typically each add about 3 msec
latency at 44K1 - so if the software is doing 2 Msec, you can easily
end up seeing 8.  Theoretically, it should be possible to cut the filter
latencies in half by going to 48K, or to .3 msec apiece if you run
at 96K.  (It's inversely proportional to the Nyquist minus 20 KHz.)
