I never quite understood what was supposed to be bad about replying to one's
own post.. :)

With soundcard irq prio at 90 [not shared with any other device], Jack prio at
70 and all other irq prios at default 51?

Then it's either an application bug [are you running any applications]? Or a
bug in the emu10k1 driver. Or in jackd, though i suppose that's rather
unlikely..

Nope.. It will be started with the default prio again. Have a look at the
rtirq script or fiddle your own initscript. Most distros have some "local"
init script where you put that command..
