ok, i think it must be starting before alsa, cos here's the situation:
1. just to clear up - my sound card has now made it's home on irq #5 -
this has held true after numerous reboots, checked with
cat /proc/interrupts:
CPU0
0: 198142 XT-PIC timer 0/98142
1: 273 XT-PIC i8042 0/273
2: 0 XT-PIC cascade 0/0
3: 0 XT-PIC ehci_hcd 0/0
4: 0 XT-PIC ohci_hcd 0/0
5: 0 XT-PIC EMU10K1 0/0
7: 113098 XT-PIC parport0 0/8677
8: 1 XT-PIC rtc 0/1
9: 0 XT-PIC acpi 0/0
10: 9958 XT-PIC nvidia 0/9958
11: 17722 XT-PIC ohci_hcd, eth0 0/17722
12: 421 XT-PIC i8042 0/421
14: 10910 XT-PIC ide0 0/10910
15: 176 XT-PIC ide1 0/176
NMI: 0
LOC: 198065
ERR: 4421
MIS: 0
2. after booting, the output of
/etc/rc.d/init.d/rtirq status
is:
PID CLS RTPRIO NI PRI %CPU STAT COMMAND
276 FF 80 -5 120 0.0 SW< IRQ 8
878 FF 60 -5 100 0.0 SW< IRQ 3
954 FF 60 -5 100 0.0 SW< IRQ 4
929 FF 59 -5 99 0.1 SW< IRQ 11
374 FF 50 -5 90 0.0 SW< IRQ 1
20 FF 49 -5 89 0.0 SW< IRQ 9
297 FF 49 -5 89 0.0 SW< IRQ 12
333 FF 46 -5 86 0.1 SW< IRQ 14
335 FF 45 -5 85 0.0 SW< IRQ 15
1886 FF 40 -5 80 0.0 SW< IRQ 7
2054 FF 39 -5 79 0.0 SW< IRQ 6
3462 FF 38 -5 78 0.1 SW< IRQ 10
3695 FF 37 -5 77 0.0 SW< IRQ 5
3. however, after running:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/rtirq restart
the ouput is:
PID CLS RTPRIO NI PRI %CPU STAT COMMAND
276 FF 80 -5 120 0.0 SW< IRQ 8
3695 FF 70 -5 110 0.0 SW< IRQ 5
878 FF 60 -5 100 0.0 SW< IRQ 3
954 FF 60 -5 100 0.0 SW< IRQ 4
929 FF 59 -5 99 0.1 SW< IRQ 11
374 FF 50 -5 90 0.0 SW< IRQ 1
20 FF 49 -5 89 0.0 SW< IRQ 9
297 FF 49 -5 89 0.0 SW< IRQ 12
333 FF 46 -5 86 0.0 SW< IRQ 14
335 FF 45 -5 85 0.0 SW< IRQ 15
1886 FF 40 -5 80 0.0 SW< IRQ 7
2054 FF 39 -5 79 0.0 SW< IRQ 6
3462 FF 38 -5 78 0.1 SW< IRQ 10
which looks to be the way it should happen ...

/etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S88rtirq
/etc/rc.d/rc6.d/K19rtirq
5. and just for good measure, here's the output of
cat /proc/asound/cards:
0 [Live ]: EMU10K1 - Sound Blaster Live!
Sound Blaster Live! (rev.7, serial:0x80611102) at
0xd000, irq 5
hope this helps!

ps - if rtirq is going to be giving my soundcard a priority of 70, does
that mean i should indicate a priority of 69 in qjactctl?
