[linux-audio-dev] 2.6.15.7-rt

I just upgraded my LFS 6.1 system from 2.6.12 (with preempt, but not the -rt patch) to 2.6.15-rt (enabling high resolution timers and PREEMPT_RT along the way), and now my audio driver is dropping interrupts every few seconds, something it wasn't doing before. I haven't configured rtlimits since the program runs as root anyway, and I'd like it to be free to hog quite a lot if need be. In my application (which runs in SCHED_FIFO), the audio thread runs at -10, while the video thread runs at -19. I don't know if that is best, I just wanted them to be higher than the other threads. Also, outside forces, like a ssh connection, or a USB dongle connection cause the program to drop audio madly. Is there some code I need to be adding to force such system tasks down rather than just elevating my own application? -- Joshua D.
