Even with 100% load on both CPU cores audio is perfect. However, while playing high resolution video, audio has many tiny regular interruptions which can be like crackles or micro stuttering. This happens when playing 1080p YouTube video in Chrome or 1080p video via VLC using the OpenGL output. Other high GPU load, like scrolling Google Maps around a lot in Chrome, can also cause these interruptions. They don't only affect the application causing graphical load, but also affect other applications playing audio, like mpg123. I've changed bdl_pos_adj, position_fix and enable_msi parameters of the snd_hda_intel module. Maybe bdl_pos_adj=64 and position_fix=1 makes it a bit better, but I'm not certain and it's certainly still not okay. I tried interrupt priorities as described in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/rtirq and that didn't help. Changing latency via setpci seems not applicable because this laptop uses PCI Express. Not running PulseAudio and using ALSA instead doesn't help. Running a bare-bones X configuration with twm doesn't help. Configuring VLC to use XVideo video output makes audio perfect with the same video which was causing these interruptions when using OpenGL video output.
