I'm not sure irqbalance is a good idea. (although i'm not familiar with 
it, its sounds like it balances it all the time, not just spreads it and 
leaves it).
Maybe its best to do it manually ?.

have a look at something i wrote ages ago: 
http://www.asteriskguru.com/tutorials/pci_irq_apic_tdm_ticks_te410p_te405p_noise.html
and search for "_Put your networkcard and pri card on a different CPU"
