Another motivation would be to avoid having MIDI timing quantized to
audio block granularity under heavy audio CPU load. This would make
sense only if events have to be timestamped in the context of the
MIDI thread, and then it would require that the MIDI thread gets
higher priority than the audio thread(s).

will now try and use SCHED_FIFO. If you run jackd

why?
