Hello,
I'm looking for some advices for configuring my system.
I plan to use the Jack plugin for the Asterisk PBX
https://blog.russellbryant.net/2008/01/13/jack-interfaces-for-asterisk/
https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+12+Application_JACK
Since Asterisk is started as a daemon by systemd, I guess that I should
also start Jackd as a system-wide server, and not within a user graphical
session. In such a case, jackd does not rely on dbus, isn't it?
So, how does jack clients may reach the jackd server?
Is there some well known entry point, or discovering mechanisms (without
dbus)?
I'm lost. Any explanations are welcome ;-)
You can start jackd early in the boot process *without* DBUS device
reservation etc. You should not start it as root but as the user that will
start clients in it. Root can start a screen session as the target user
and then feed the jackd command to it.
Greetings
