This improves the situation a bit.
with a prefetch size=10 I saw a burst of 10 high prio msg taking turns with approx. 100 low prio messages like:
BOOOOOOOOBBB.........BBBBBBOOOOOOOOOBBBB..........BBBOOOOOOOO....

with prefetch size=1 I see one or two high prio messages separated by approx. 10 low prio messages.
BOOOBBBBBBBOOBBBBBBBBOOBBBBBBBBOOBBBBBBBB

Still, the rtt for high prio messages is in the order of seconds because of these low prio messages. With just high prio messages the rtt is less than 15msg on my linux box. The jboss.mq stack kept this below 100ms (if I remember correctly) when additional low prio messages where in the queue.
