I am running it as root on vanilla Armbian 64 (Ubuntu Xenial):

Linux odroidc2 3.14.79-odroidc2 #20 SMP PREEMPT Fri Dec 30 18:46:17 CET 2016 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux

I suspect the default configuration during install has set the nice-ness to -10:

  PID USER      PR  NI    VIRT    RES    SHR S  %CPU %MEM     TIME+ COMMAND
  937 root      10 -10   17976   6736   1696 S  17.0  0.4  24:27.54 networkaudiod

Finally, the dirty secret is that I used the stretch deb packages from your repo - there are no Ubuntu packages for ARM Xenial in your repo.

I hope that helps.
