Andrew,

Thanks for this instructive reply. At this point I do not use threads and do all in my callback. Therefore I once in a while get minor audio "stalls", probably caused by a blocking file io call. For me, using NSThread would be very easy and convenient. But by default an NSThread has not high enough priority. Is there an easy way to change the priority when using NSThread?

I believe you should be able to get the underlying pthread identifier from the NSThread (though I'll confess I'm not familiar with that class, I'm mostly a C++ person) from their you can set the priority using the mach thread API's - there's examples of how to do this in the Million Monkeys source and in Bills WWDC presentation.
