Afaik most mainboards have hard-wired interrupts for the devices and the 
slots.
So in a desktop-system moving devices in their slots is a way of changing 
their interrupt.

With a laptop you are out of luck.
Then the only solution is to make sure that only one of the sharing devices is 
used at a time. On my laptop fw and wifi are sharing and when I shut down the 
network, I don't get problems with the firewire. Whereas on my big machine 
one of the usb-ports is sharing with the graphics. Back when I used usb-audio 
I figured which port it was and used that only for the mouse, not for 
audio...
