Are you a Tank or DPS? DPS takes a bit to find a spot in the queue while Tank and Healer are almost instant. The longest I have ever spent in queue with my Tank was about a minute and that was for White Gold Tower, where almost no one goes.
On my DPS Mage, 10-15 minutes usually before I just give up.

Here is what applies
-Dungeon selection (random or specific)
-Role selected (DPS/Healer/Tank)
-normal / veteran
Not in that order, honestly not sure about what filter or levels apply first but this is what matters.

Your question is why the DK or other classes are in queue longer. The reality is your class has no bearing on the queue at all

Unfortunately, it appears to have some bearing.
If I can queue for a dungeon as a lvl 18 DPS Templar, and get a dungeon in less than 5 minutes. But if I queue as a lvl 18 DPS DK, and it takes over an hour, something is weird.
BOTH are DPS. BOTH are even in the same faction.
I can log in right now, queue as my Templar, and get a dungeon in a few minutes.
However if I were to log into my DK, I know for a fact that I will be waiting over an hour.

If you want to claim there's a game-wide issue where Templars are getting selected as DPS before DKs, we're going to need a little more than one person with that problem.
We're going to need other people testing that out. You're going to need to test it more than just a couple of times.
Otherwise, its far more likely that its a problem happening to one of your characters when you queue.
The best advice I can give is to try exiting queue and reentering queue if you reach a point where you feel your other charactera would have gotten in by now.

Maybe I can even make a post on the forums that would give others the idea to test things themselves.

Ive experienced this on a magwarden healer and a magdk tank where I'm waiting for five minutes (unusual for those roles), leave queue, requeue, and have the queue pop in a few seconds. Is it possible that there was a new group right then? Sure. But I've seen it happen enough that I always rejoin queue as a healer or tank if I'm waiting for 5 or more minutes.
Please don't do this unless you have a taunt, and can survive keeping bosses in place for your party to kill efficiently.que is instant if you que as a tank.
