OK.  That's a pleasant answer.  :-)

I added this:

::::::::::::::
/etc/security/limits.d/93-audio_limits.conf
::::::::::::::
# Increase priority of audio applications
# maximum realtime priority
@audio - rtprio 90
# maximum locked-in-memory address space (KB)
@audio - memlock 2000000


Fedora's jack-audio-connection-kit-1.9.8-9.fc17.x86_64 package added this:

::::::::::::::
/etc/security/limits.d/95-jack.conf
::::::::::::::
# Default limits for users of jack-audio-connection-kit

@jackuser - rtprio 70
@jackuser - memlock 4194304

@pulse-rt - rtprio 20
@pulse-rt - nice -20

By permissions, are you meaning

  crw-rw---- 1 root audio  10, 228 Oct 10 22:47 /dev/hpet
  crw-rw---- 1 root audio 254,   0 Oct 10 22:47 /dev/rtc0

I'm having IRQ crowding issues, and I was headed at trying to
get rtirq going in order to help this.  I believe rtirq *does*
require an RT kernel.
