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.
