Hi,
I have been using jack for years without problems on my
debian/stable PC running 4.19.0-17-rt-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT RT Debian
4.19.194-3 (2021-07-18) x86_64.
I recently acquired a Boss RC-505 which is giving me trouble getting
it's USB audio working. (By contrast I have a Scarlett 2i2 external
USB sound card which works 100%)
I use qjackctl to set jack up, and it is giving some error messages
which I will include below.
From the perspective of dmesg, lsusb and the info in qjackctl, it
looks like the RC-505 is being detected correctly it seems.
FYI when I set up qjackctl to use the RC-505 instead of the
Scarlett, I see that jack is set up as follows:
/usr/bin/jackd -dalsa -r48000 -p256 -n2 -Xseq -D -Chw:RC505
-Phw:PCH
I am a programmer, so I'm not afraid to "get my hands dirty" - I
just don't know where to start. What would you guys suggest?
Here's the output from qjackctl:
