  The level 6 deferred processing will only be done if you specify
the LEV6_DEFER option.  If there isn't a level 6 interrupt pending
when the level 4 interrupt occurs, it will process the level 4
interrupt normally.  If there is a level 6 interrupt pending, then
the level 6 interrupt will be processed.  At the end of that
processing, the AUD3 interrupt will be cleared in the INTREQ register.
I don't know enough about how the INTREQ register is implemented, or
how the audio interrupts work, so I'm not sure what would happen.  If
channel 3 isn't being used, there wouldn't be any problem.  The level
6 interrupt could test if AUD3 is already set and save that state.
Then AUD3 could be conditionally cleared only if it wasn't pending
at the time of the level 6 interrupt.  This only leaves the case
where the AUD3 gets set between the time the level 6 interrupt handler
tests AUD3 and when the deferred handler clears AUD3.  I'm not sure
what could be done for this case.
