Well once I blacklist the bt driver ath3k, the laptop works fine for
usb lowlatency audio even with wifi enabled, but the wifi sucks real bad
(signal wise). So ideally i'd like to get a better wifi chip, and a bt
that i can use without destroying any chance at low latency audio. But
if not possible I'll just get a good wifi and leave bt disabled.

Sadly enough all 4 external usb ports are connected to the same hub,
but luckily enough it appears that low latency usb audio still works
even with a logitech mouse attached to the same hub.
