Just to clarify: No one cares if a video player has low-latency audio as long as the audio latency matches the video latency. As in, it totally sucks when the words coming out of an actor's mouth don't line up with the audio.
The only place where low-latency matters is real-time encoding situations. For example, video conferencing, composing music, streaming things live, etc but even in those situations "low" is a relative term. Low-latency video conferencing is anything under 200-500ms (depending on who you ask). Low-latency music composition is <20ms (again, depending on who you ask).
