Egg on my face but joy at last! I didn't pay attention carefully enough when you emphatically said what to do regarding Monitor settings. I looked at all the input/output Monitor buttons for each track. They were all off. But I overlooked your specific instruction to uncheck the "Track > Auto Monitor" box. I'm hesitant to say it but that seems to have fixed the damper pedal problem! I'm afraid I'll try again tomorrow and it won't work but for the moment everything seems to work correctly regarding both latency and damper pedal operation. I would never have been able to figure this out on my own because I can't relate to what the Monitor function is for, how it works, or why it's turned on by default. I'll just have to remember to turn it off.

I assumed the Monitor feature allowed sound to be heard through the computer's audio system while midi data is simultaneously sent to a synthesizer. But I don't see how that would have any impact on my problem. Anyway, as you said, it automagically works somehow.

There's so much I don't understand about midi and Qtractor but I'm optimistic that I'm over this hill.

Thanks for hanging in there with me!
