Align equal signs while including text over equalities
Announcing the arrival of Valued Associate #679: Cesar Manara
Planned maintenance scheduled April 17/18, 2019 at 00:00UTC (8:00pm US/Eastern)AMS align: left aligned text/math plus multicolumn alignmentMultiple alignmentsNumbering and aligning an equation with multiple columnsHow to align one equation with another multline equationUsing \ in environments inside the begintabularxNumber equations and preserving alignment of equal signsAlign equations which already have aligned answers (alignment-ception)How can I align equations to the left and to the right?Double equation alignment problem within align enviromentAligned within align: Why are they right-aligned?
I understand how to align multiple equations, but how can I do this if I want to also have text over the equalities. For example:

It bugs me that the equal signs are no longer aligned. Here is my LaTeX:
$$
beginalign
p(textbfx mid mathcalD, alpha)
&= int p(textbfx mid boldsymboltheta) p(boldsymboltheta mid mathcalD, alpha) textd boldsymboltheta
\
&stackreltextEq 4= int p(textbfx mid boldsymboltheta) p(boldsymboltheta mid alpha') textd boldsymboltheta
\
&= p(textbfx mid alpha'). tag5
endalign
$$
Is there a solution to this?

Here I use mathclap to insure that the overstack takes up zero horizontal space.
Also, change the textbf instances to mathbf (thanks, Mico).
Finally, ditch the $$ delimiters.
