I've been able to get better low-latency out of the regular fedora kernel while using lxde as the window manager, then I can get out of the newest rt-kernel(when it isn't crashing of course).  Video drivers can also be a problem, don't expect the nvidia drivers to work on the 3.0-rt.

Tracy do you have a beta copy of the K3 RT , I'd like to see if that 

would solve the problems with my M-audio card, and if it doesn't give
you some feed back.
