ALSA errors when renicing unrelated process

[Lee Revell]

I have found that I can reliably produce the following errors by
renicing the X server from -10 (the default on Debian) to 0 and back.  I
get the same error going from 0 to -10 as -10 back to 0, as if renicing
the process causes some kind of hiccup in the scheduler.  I do not seem
to get XRUNs when this happens.
