The limit is often referred as "rtprio" not "rt_priority", but they might be
aliases for the same thing..

Does your user belong to the group "audio", and did it belong to the group
when you logged in? 

Was this limits.conf setup in place when you logged in?

Which version of libpam do you have installed?
