Thanks John.
Yes I have been using command line startup of jack as the preferred way
for about a year now. It was always the only way that would work.
Before I wiped the AV installation, mixbus did work, but UI had to
completely remove qjackctl as they did not ant to work together
properly.As soon as I start qjackctl mixbus wotn work. I let mixbus
start jack, then the only reson to use qjackctl is just to monitor some
output. So yur suggestion in my opinion is the correct one.
The problem seems to persist, using qjackctl with mixbus, so the best
is to remove it.
Patchage + command line startup of jack seems a better way to create
connections and jack at least runs and I already did that. The inputs of
mixbus doesnt seem to get anything from the 1818VSL though and I will
have to find a way to test them independently from mixbus.
The big problem is to COMPLETELY remove pulseaudio, I dont mean
uninstall, purge and make sure there is no panel apps running. I found
the latter to have created an issue and jack started working after all
that garbage was removed.
Yes, I worked through the arch document.
Thanks for the input.
It is helpful.
Use command line, not qjackctl. Eg. to start jackd
with default
values:
jackd -d alsa
Or more explicitly:
jackd -d alsa -d hw:0 -r48000 -p1024 -n2
The options are described in the jackd manpage.
Then start jack clients (usually non-session-manager here as I
use Non-DAW nowadays, but the same procedure used to work with
ardour2 and ardour3).
Once jackd is running you can check clients and manage
connections with a suitable connection manager, eg. patchage.
If you use Ardour, use its built in connection manager.
There's not a lot to write up. I don't know what's happening on
your system to prevent it working, but perhaps it could be a
system configuration problem. There's a good guide to setting
up a system for realtime audio on the Arch Linux wiki:
