Comment(by veplaini):

 However --sched is only used by the csound command; activities use
 the API, so --sched is ignored. So I might look into allowing a
 new option to set scheduler priority as part of the rtalsa module,
 which should improve performance. This won't affect TamTam, as it
 does not use rtalsa (but as you said here
 there is scheduler priority code there).

 We might still need the right permissions to use it.
