No, this does not cause an xrun, because even though the USB interrupt
handler interrupts the soundcard irq (and vice versa), it does not run
for a significant fraction of the period time.  Of course it's best to
have the soundcard on an interrupt that is not shared.  But whether that
interrupt is #5 or #10 does not matter.

PIC (as in I only have irqs 0-15), but APIC works the same way.
