Well, assuming you really mean 4800 and not 48000, I guess that is to
be expected. With lower sample rate the CPU has much less work to do.
And minimum latency can be calculated using your period count and
size. So when using 1024 period size, 8 periods and 4800 Hz sample
rate, you get (1024 / 4800) * 8 = 1,707 seconds.

I don't really understand your question. Could you elaborate or rephrase it?
