You'd have to run the 'nice' via a shell script. I'm fairly certain that if you had a shell script that kicked off lavrec, within it, you could call 'renice -n 10 $$' or start lavrec with 'nice -n 10 lavrec', and it would get started appropriately.
Also, I thought that lavrec made some attempts to 'renice' itself. maybe it needs to be setuid root for that to happen?
