And somehow every single time the problem was so easy to solve, but apparently crying about it is the better solution.

I haven't messed around with audio in a while, but a couple of years ago I did some home recording. And Linux at the time was horrible to use for recording. Got a bunch of latency and some other issues. I found a solution where one guy had written a bunch of scripts to deal with the buffering when switching audio driver. It helped, but it wasn't perfect.
No idea what the state of audio is now, but it used to suck. And it will probably suck for a while since the major DAWs are all on Windows/Mac. But I would love to be proven wrong
I use reaper on Linux to monitor my guitar coming in from Axe Fx 3's spdif output with very low latency. What exactly was giving you issues with latency ?
Might have been the soundcard on my laptop, the old external soundcard I used or audio driver. No idea what the problem actually was. This was a couple of years ago, and I wasn't very proficient in Linux. I gave up, and then haven't tried again since.
I used Reaper and an old soundcard from Steinberg. Don't remember which drivers. Think I ran Ubuntu at the time.
