[linux-audio-user] SB Extigy with Jack

Hi!

I'm using the Soundblaster Extigy USB-Soundcard and would like to get JACK 
working.

AFAIK ALSA is working. But if I start qjackctl and after that ardour or 
rosegarden4, the output is *really* noisy. I've attached the qjackctl output 
messages and I'm using Debian/unstable with a compiled 2.6.14.3 kernel. I'd 
like to provide you some more information, but I have no idea what the 
problem is, so I don't know, what to post.

Thanks in advance to everyone who can help me...
