gksudo, pkexec or Co.? I don't have it installed. Do you need it for
some reason?

RTC is for real-time clock, usually completely irrelevant for pro-audio.

I've got a PCIe (tower PC, not laptop) RME card, too.

[rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ grep NAME_LIST=\"u /etc/conf.d/rtirq
RTIRQ_NAME_LIST="usb snd_hdsp snd_ice1"
[rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ rtirq status | head -7

  PID CLS RTPRIO  NI PRI %CPU STAT COMMAND	
  109 FF      90   - 130  0.0 S    irq/16-ehci_hcd	
  110 FF      90   - 130  0.0 S    irq/25-xhci_hcd	
  126 FF      89   - 129  0.0 S    irq/23-ehci_hcd	
  241 FF      85   - 125  0.0 S    irq/16-snd_hdsp	
  242 FF      80   - 120  0.0 S    irq/16-snd_ice1

For my old mobo I unbound USB ports sharing the IRQ with audio devices,
for my new mobo it's not possible, but the shared IRQ doesn't cause
noticeable effects. Usually I do not use the USB device, but the HDSPe.
Until now I didn't care that the USB ports are above the HDSPe.

Trial-and-error and feel free to google. I don't know how to get access
to all USB ports, for my tower PC I'm using USB slot
