    An update on this issue... the Xmms output driver has a setting that
    controls the latency. I set this to 30ms (it was 3000ms, matching the
    latency I was experiencing).

    I also set the aRtsd latency to 30ms via the control panel. I also set
    "realtime scheduling" and made sure artsdwrapper was SUID root.

    However, Xmms still has a latency of 3s, making it nearly unusable.

    Interestingly, Xmms using OSS does NOT show the latency, nor does the
    "noatun" player using aRtsd server. Interesting. So I decided it was
    something specific to the Xmms aRtsd output plugin and posted a bug to
    bugs.xmms.org.
