Let's try running Jack from within QJC. That way you can set up a Jack
profile with settings that make sense and then you can save them.

I suspect, for no good reason, that the mixer and the Hammerfall
wouldn't be happy if the Hammerfall is really running at 22K.

In QJC make sure  that you are choosing the right soundcard. Is it
possible that you have a built in sound card that is set up for card 0
and the Hammerfall is actually card 1?


mark at lightning ~ $ cat /proc/asound/cards
 0 [CK804          ]: NFORCE - NVidia CK804
                      NVidia CK804 with ALC850 at 0xda103000, irq 225
 1 [DSP            ]: H-DSP - Hammerfall DSP
                      RME Hammerfall HDSP 9652 at 0xda000000, irq 66

If yours looks anything like this then the default Jack setting is
running Jack with the built in card. However since you see 18 IO's it
sounds like the Hammerfall and not a built in unless they are virtual
ports...

>From within QJC I start Jack here with the command shown, and again
this is my HDSP9652, not a Hammerfall, but it should be very close if
not exactly the same, and this is what I see in QJC's message window:

(you do NOT need to run 64/2 for testing...)

Hope this helps somehow,
