Prioritise based on source/destination of onyl UDP packets. Since most
other every-day bandwidth heavy uses tend to be TCP based and RTP tends
to be UDP based, you should be okay.

I personally run a VPN between my VoIP sites and prioritise that VPNs
traffic. (And, FWIW, my router is a FreeBSD box that I have applied the
ALTQ patches to)
