Indeed, but in this case I'm dealing with a private network that doesn't
have so much surplus as to guarantee no contention.

Qos is designed for dealing with "who gets preference when there's a
bandwidth
shortage".  Most places are having a bandwidth glut at the moment, so
the VoIP
traffic gets through just fine and QoS isn't able to provide much
measurable
improvement.
