Suppose a jack thread is running and your midiin
device irq comes in but not
through,
because the device's irq thread has lower priority and does not get
scheduled!
This is an interesting question: How is midi activity on physical ports
handled? Is it polled? Or is the soundcard IRQ used for this, too? In
the latter case the soundcard IRQ should definetly have a higher prio
than all jack stuff.
