I thought that rtirq looks at softirqs and not at hardware IRQs. So if 
the order in rtirq is snd_ice1712 snd then only snd_ice1712 gets a 
higher prio and all the other devices on the hardware IRQ get the 
default prio (which is 50). The next item in the list (snd) gets a prio 
below snd_ice1712 of which the step is defined by RTIRQ_PRIO_DECR 
(default is 5). If there are multiple snd devices they get a prio below 
the first snd device with steps of 1.
Maybe this behavior has changed with the most recent version of rtirq, 
haven't tried it.

Best,

Jeremy
