[LAU] CPU Priorities at limits.conf

I order to use my audio applications (related to latency) more efficiently,
I gave some priorities to the applications which are in the "audio" group by
adding the lines below, to the file "/etc/security/limits.conf"

@audio - rtprio 95
@audio - memlock 512000
@audio - nice -19

By doing this, to which application did I give the priority ?

Alsa, Jack ... ?

How is that defined in GNU/Linux ?

I mean,
Did I give this priority to all applications using the sound device or to
the applications that are included in the "audio" group ?

Who, what or which are in the "audio" group ?

Thanks.
