[Jack-Devel] Jack Problems

[liebrecht at grossmann-venter.com]

Hi Chris dont view the following answer in a negative light, the jack 
folks are great and doe3nst deserve any criticism other than usability 
for newcombers.

I have read those links  till my eyes bled and completely borked a 
previous system for reasons I still dont know. It is really detailed 
information that will not help at user level at all. Developers can use 
it but users not really.
It is not concise enough and doesnt cover the entire spectrum of what 
jack does. Reading that a user has an even less clear view of what jack 
is or does. We dont need essays we need tangible scriptable solutions.

Just my experience...not a flame.

After using Folgers advice to get pulse to use jack, strange things now 
happen. Sound disappeared as Pulse obviously couldnt start, but it 
causes a huge jack issue it seems after adding load-module 
module-jack-source
load-module module-jack-sink channels=2 to default.pa.
