Your pcmcia is sharing the interrupt with the first usb-port. You can use lsusb

OK, so what does the following mean:
16: 1 IO-APIC-fasteoi uhci_hcd:usb1, yenta Thanks, but 100E secondhand means it's
probably well out of my price
range. My laptop does have a PCMCIA slot. I have a compact flash card
reader that plugs into it, but data transfers are very slow through it.
I wouldn't be surprised to find that the silly laptop shares interrupts
with PCMCIA, video and audio hardware!
You can get your surprise from a simply
"cat /proc/interrupts"... If I have a soft synth running, big updates to the
screen display will
make it start and stop. But I'm not running an RT kernel here.
Please not that while your graphics card isn't listed in the output of "cat
/proc/interrupts" this doesn't mean that it isn't sending interrupts. Only
there is no driver caring about them. So it can still be that the graphics is
disturbing your sound-interrupts...
