Your assumption was correct, disabling the group scheduler has fixed
all the problems (except for the fact that when xruns do occur the
values are still extremely large - but that's probably just version
incompatibility between ALSA drivers in the kernel and libasound). Of
course this suggests that the group scheduler is still borked, at least
on amd64.

Thanks for your help!
