PA configures the latency for its clients to what they ask for (in certain limits). If an application doesn't get good latency than this might be because it didn't ask for lower latencies. If you pass tsched=0 to PA's ALSA modules this will disable dynamic latency adjustments, to the effect that all apps will get the same latency settings regardless what they ask for. Other than that, this might have a veriety of reasons. An output of "ls" in "pacmd" might help to figure out what clients asked for and what they actually got.
