I have found with USB audio, I have to find a USB plug that has it's own
IRQ. For example I have:

 16:   12488044          0   IO-APIC-fasteoi   ehci_hcd:usb1,
uhci_hcd:usb2, i915, ath9k
 17:          0          0   IO-APIC-fasteoi   uhci_hcd:usb3

That USB2 is the left side plug on my machine, the usb3 is the right... I
only use the one on the right. I also have found I have to unload the
wireless kernel module as it's once a minute scan gives xruns... once
every five seconds if wireless is disabled.
