There are JACK-routines that report latency. E.g. the graphical
multiband EQ has some noticeble latency. Rosegarden handles this
already. Kudos to the developers!

- But there is an off-by-one bug in latency compensation in subgroups

- Audio tracks don't get latency compensated (delayed) at all:
  1.) Set up a synth plugin track
  2.) Record vocals and align them, so they are in sync
  3.) Add artificial latancy plugin to the synth plugin track, e.g. 500
      ms
  4.) Audio track is out of sync.

These are real annoying bugs because I have to align each audio snippet
when adding plugins to synth plugin tracks. Maybe (I am no god and don't
know everything) this is the reason I hardly encounter pop-like songs
recorded with Rosegarden where we have drums and bass that have to be
aligned together with vocals.

The bugs are:

- 1358  Latency Compensation Bug in Subgroups
- 1360  Latency Compensation for Audio Tracks
