Daniel T Chen:
After additional testing I experienced a complete system lockup with the stock Ubuntu 9.04 generic kernel. I suspect it was because I had the PulseAudio option "no-cpu-limit = yes" enabled with SCHED_FIFO RT as well and it got in a loop. So this is starting to sound exactly as you describe. I have been testing your posted kernel for a couple days now and its working great. Sorry for doubting you! ;-) It seems the -rt kernel has some sort of SCHED_FIFO lockup protection though which was killing the PulseAudio task when it got too CPU hungry. I'm curious what particular option this is in the Kernel.

At any rate, this bug can probably just be marked as a duplicate and closed.
