[LAU] can jackd or ardour be forced to use interleaved mode?

[Chris Caudle]

Does anyone know if jackd (or the Ardour ALSA backend) can be forced to
use interleaved mode?  I am trying to work around a problem where a driver
only supports interleaved access, but apparently jackd and Ardour try to
open in non-interleaved mode.  In parallel I am helping someone else check
if there is some function missing that should inform applications that
only interleaved mode is supported, and someone else is going to look at
adding non-interleaved mode, but in the mean time I would like to find a
work around if possible.
