Noticable audio latency with Sound Blaster X7 #23

First off, I want to say how much I appreciate this project, as this has been one of my most wanted features on switch since day one. My Sound Blaster X7 DAC/Amp is the main thing I plan on using it with (as I did with my vita - with its native support). However, as it stands the audio latency is very noticeable. Testing with Hyrule Warriors Definitive edition, menu selections, attacks etc. all have a noticeable delay between the button press (and visual feedback) and the sound playing - though I don't have any way to properly measure it - it's enough that it's noticeable to the naked ear though. I don't know if this is a device to device issue, or something that can be improved down the line (I should note that, latency aside, the audio quality is great - better than I expected). The X7 does support aptx, though I don't know if there's any way to hack in support for it (and given aptx's proprietary nature, I doubt there is, but that would be an awesome feature if it could somehow be done).

Same happens with Creative Aurvana Platinum, maybe Creative brand issue overall? If you need something that we can take to help developement, I'd like to put my grain of sand.

Thanks for this awesome developement :)
