I don't use pulseaudio, but I assume that "default"
and "null" are names of pulseaudio (pseudo)devices.

How can you tell the delay when writing to a null device?
(If that means what I think it means: dropping the pulseaudio,
would it be what sox -d -n does?) I just tried

	sox -d -d pitch 1000

an OpenBSD current/amd64, and there is indeed
about a half second of delay.

I don't understand: what does your application do
that you need to "add a null loopback"?

It seems there is a delay even when just playing
default input to default output; even without the effects:

	sox -d -d

(So I don't think it's the effect processing
that introduces the delay.)
