Mummble? There are more than one mummble clients avaiable for android and
of course linux as well. I think mummble uses opus by default which is 5ms
(or can be) and at least between desktops seems very instantaious. The
android audio stack tends to be laggy, I think there is an alsa in there
somewhere but the application only sees it through a higher level API
which on most smart (cough) phones/tablets seems to introduce too much
delay. Playing drums on the screen for example is too latent to be able to
play with myself even. Hopefully your device is better.
