soundcard ports are always assigned,

hydrogen, 32*2: 64
ardour uses something like 4 per mono track,
plus 2 more? 34
so thats getting to 120ish, so you could easily have run out.
Even if I am not using them all? I calculate I had maybe 12 - 15
actually allocated ( will try to verify this tonight when I am back in
the studio )
After I
restarted jackd (and not making any changes in qjackctl),
Hydrogen refused to start (it would segfault on startup, but if I
started Hydrogen without jackd it would startup fine), and when I
reopened the same session in Ardour, the entire screen would freeze
(except the mouse).
Thats not good, and I dont know why its doing tht offhand, it could be
because theres some stale files or pipes in your jack tmp directory?
Yeah, that's what I was wondering, or perhaps a zombied process
strace-ing or gdb-ing hydrogen might give a clue.
I stared working at that but had to give up the hunt as it was very late
and I needed sleep. :-)
