Hi, I had the same problem until I gave a look at RTirq config file (/etc/default/rtirq on debian). It used to give high rtprio to usb device with the following config line: "rtc snd usb ..." But as I have a PCI audio card, I just had to remove 'usb' from it and the 10min xrun problem is solved for me. I still have a problem with my SCSI controller, but I chose to start another thread. I hope it can help somebody.
