Sorry, didn't quite get it what you are suggesting: under rt or non-rt
kernel? Or under rt-kernel leaving IRQ-priority alone and only starting
arecord as an rt-process? arecord itself doesn't set rt-priority, looks
like. Initially I tried running arecord under normal kernel withowt chrt,
and, I think, it even worked before. Around 2.6.11-13? Although I did try
not to touch the PC during the recording. Not sure any more how easy /
well it worked, but I didn't notice any trouble... Then I started getting
those overruns (2.6.14-15?), first tried renicing arecord, it helped just
a bit, still was quite fragile. Then I started using rt-preempt...

and no, I don't have any devices on usb4. IRQ5's prioirity was lower than
many others, so, I raised it.
