Yes, it sounds to me like you just had too many interupts going on,
running your AGP card at x4 will generate a lot of interupts and running
your USB sounds device at low latency will generate a lot of interupts.
Unfortunately I now have crappy rendering for dvds :(
So my guess is that you could have one of these things
going flat out but
not both.
It seems to be that way. Although before I managed to fall asleep
yesterday I noticed that my machine was not maintaining irq settings
between boots. Now I have to get irqtune running but for some reason it
doesn't want to work ATM. [He says at 6:30 on Saturday morning after

Do USB devices generate more interrupts per period
than PCI? I think all
my machines are running AGP x2 at most.
It would appear that is the case.

Being on stage with the band in front of crowds shouting, "Get off! No!
We want normal music!", I think that was more like acting than anything
I've ever done.
