My sound card (snd_hdsp) does share IRQ 18 with the graphics (radeon),
when using older kernels, with newer kernel the graphics gets IRQ 43.

The order of the audio cards is fixed, I wonder why the hdsp and ice
cards get different IRQ orders, but with equal priorities. I'll
replace ...
spinymouse@q:/mnt/music/quantal/01song$ grep RTIRQ_NAME_LIST /etc/default/rtirq
RTIRQ_NAME_LIST="rtc snd usb i8042"
... by "rtc snd_hdsp snd_ice1 snd usb i8042" or similar. I suspect the
priorities still will be equal. Sometimes the rtirq packages doesn't fit
to the packaged kernel version.
To get rid of other stuff sharing the IRQ with the graphics, I unbind
some devices by a script:
spinymouse@q:/mnt/music/quantal/01song$ sudo bash tuning
bluetooth stop/waiting
cups stop/waiting
