No it doesn't... I see where you're going with this, but the math just doesn't work because of the percentage based attack speed increase penalty you get when dual wielding.

If you don't have two weapons of the exact same speed, you won't hit at the same time with both weapons.

Cardio cutter (fabled) from Last boss in Crypt of agony, iirc has 3.0 sec delay, not a bad off-hand by any means. Easy to get in terms of zone difficulty but a rare drop.

Ward of Elements - Khost Alur

Edit:
I do realise it is from the x2 raid so not RoK or easy TSO content... but it isn't too hard either

You didn't do too well in math's class when you were learing percentages, did you?
So lets do the math then. 3.0 + 30% is 3.9 seconds, right?
and 6.0 + 30% is 7.8, right?
so the 1:2 ratio still holds, right?

Sure you can get them out of sync. but it's not due to any percentage penalty.

So just equip it, and do a /weapon to see for yourself. Here's what I got:
Primary:
Name: Revitalized Vel'Arek
Base Damage: 74 - 417
Actual Damage: 241 - 1,364
Actual Delay: 2.5
Proc Percent: 12.0%
Procs Per Minute: 2.4

Secondary:
Name: Nathsar Shortsword
Base Damage: 108 - 610
Actual Damage: 353 - 1,998
Actual Delay: 5.0
Proc Percent: 24.0%
Procs Per Minute: 2.4
