So then, Pd is indeed running with RT?
 
I think so. Try:
pd -verbose -stderr

and you should read:

"priority 6 scheduling enabled."
if jack support is compiled in, or:

"priority 92 scheduling enabled."
if not.

If you hadn't the rights for real time, a simple:
pd
would print:

"priority 92 scheduling failed."

Hi,

I've proposed pull request #39 (https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/39) to fix this (RT status not printed to console any more).

In the meantime, if you don't get related error message (and you don't specify -nrt) then RT should be enabled.
So then, Pd is indeed running with RT?

Which Pd version do you run? I remember having the same issue with Pd
on Raspberry Pi some years ago. Pd at that time asked for rtprio 99
and didn't get it with jackd default settings. In response Miller has
then changed Pd's rtprio requirement to 95 (I don't remember which Pd
version exactly, it was probably around 0.45). If the Odroid image
ships an old Pd, setting rtprio 99 could make the difference.
I'm running the latest Pd (0.47-1) compiled from source with Jack support on an Ubuntu 14.04 LTS image.
