you create an xrun?
No, this does not cause an xrun, because even though the USB interrupt
handler interrupts the soundcard irq (and vice versa), it does not run
for a significant fraction of the period time. Of course it's best to
have the soundcard on an interrupt that is not shared. But whether that
interrupt is #5 or #10 does not matter.
BTW - PIC or APIC interrupts?
PIC (as in I only have irqs 0-15), but APIC works the same way.
