Thanks, cool... that solves the glitching that scales with CPU load,
I still have more rare glitches (every few seconds) that look like
buffer underruns. I'm suspect this is because some other kernel
entity has interrupts turned off when the DMA interrupt needs to be
serviced to switch buffers. Are there any clever tools for figuring
out who might be doing this?

We're doing an ARM-based embedded device, which right now is running

load... no glitches when simply cat-ing a file to /dev/dsp, but lots
of glitches when other things are happening on the system. Can
anyone suggest tools/techniques/patches for improving the situation?
Run the audio playback app with SCHED_FIFO priority.
