[LAU] Ardour 2.8.4 ?

[Bjoern Lindig]

Hi Fons,

I'm on Arch, too (x86_64). I'm using the same version of Ardour. Jackd --
version is 0.118.2.

I cannot reproduce this one. Mute works as it should.

I normally don't use jack-transport, so I'm not really shure, but it doesn't 
seem to work at all over here. I created a new session, imported some Audio 
and played it once in the session. When I now click on play, in qjackctl, 
'Stopped' switches to 'Rolling', but there is no reaction in Ardour. Same with 
the jack_transport command-line control. Am I missing something? I mean, do I 
need to make Ardour sensible for jack-transport in any way?

I hope that helps,
