Actually Ardour gives a choice to use ALSA or jackd, while my RME card
only could be used choosing jackd, since choosing ALSA doesn't work at
all.

[rocketmouse at archlinux ~]$ arecord -l | grep RME
card 0: HDSPMx579bcc [RME AIO_579bcc], device 0: RME AIO [RME AIO]

However, jackd would _not_ be pointless.

is a valid question, even if ALSA should work without any issues, since
jackd allows to connect individual apps when not using an all in one
approach.
