Not really, but using priorities is generally straightforward.
Something that occured to me is that ev_periodic sounds like the right thing
when you want to play somehting at a specific (wallclock) time, but your
problem sounds more like requiring specific inter-packet delays, in which
case an ev_timer would be the right thing (it isn't affected by time jumps).

While I still don't know whether that's the problem or not, it is vaguely
planned to make timer/perodioc invocation order cosnistent with their
timeout value in some future version.
