Latency - strange one!

I am using VM Banana to feed OBS. My 3 drum mics go through a USB interface (M-Audio 192-14) and I also feed a backing track through the interface. When I record in OBS my drumming audio is out of sync with the backing track - that is the audio is out of sync, not the video and audio (which is also out of sync but that's another matter!). When I play I am monitoring my headphones directly on the M-audio, so the backing track and drum mics have the same signal path and processing - so how do they get out of time?
When I record directly into a DAW (Reaper) everything is fine. The DAW uses the M-Audio ASIO driver but I can't use this for VM as I think the M-Audio driver is 64bit and VM is 32bit so I am using KS drivers as they are the only ones that work (WDM is distorted). I attach a screenshot of my VM settings and you will see I have dropped the buffers to 256 and turned on Swift (neither has had any effect). Apart from that, the sound in OSR is also rather muddy. Any suggestions gratefully received!
