I just read that dmix is used automagically since ALSA 1.0.9, so I just removed my custom .asoundrc configuration; using the default configuration ALSA / dmix seem to be much less sensitive to system latency issues. In combination with Milan's "cond_resched()"-patch I'm not getting any audio issues any more, even with massive parallel writes to encrypted partitions. The system still could be somewhat more responsive with regard to concurrent IO, but for the time being my problem is solved.
