I'm having a problem with the jackdbus process; after some hours it starts maxing out two of my four CPU cores, which in turn causes xruns when running apps. It looks like other people have found the same problem, but no solutions.

I could well be wrong; but my suspicion is not on audio threads - but rather management threads for things like DBus integration, or other "non realtime" operations. If it was the audio thread that was causing the deadlock and spinning, you would hear *no* audio at all.

So next steps I'd suggest running without any extra features (disable Dbus support, or Pulseaudio integration, or ALSA loopback devices, or anything else that's not "core" JACK). See if it still happens..

Good luck! -Harry
