[LAU] Audio Drop-outs and JACK Errors - Seeking Assistance

Hi Linux Audio Enthusiasts! I'm a fairly long-time JACK user (more than a decade, anyway), but I must admit I don't really know it that well. I'm seeking guidance with the following situation. I am hearing audio "drop-outs" (a second or two of silence) that seem to coincide with this error in jackd output: JackAudioAdapterInterface::PushAndPull ringbuffer failure... reset The audio hardware is a Digigram LX-DANTE connected to the JACK graph via ALSA device hw0,0. jackd --version is jackdmp version 1.9.18 tmpdir /dev/shm protocol 8 Also, jackd output fairly regularly (several times per minute) shows messages like: JackRingBuffer::Write : consumer too slow, skip frames = 1024 and JackLibSampleRateResampler::ReadResample error written_frames = 1020 Output available = 1022 Where the number after the "=" in the "written_frames" line is between 1020 and 1023, and the number in "Output available" is always two greater than the previous. I start jackd (as Linux user 'root') with the command: /usr/bin/jackd --realtime --name default -d dummy -r 48000 And then add the Digigram client with the command: /usr/bin/jack_load -i "-d alsa -d hw:0,0 -i 64 -o 64 -r 48000 -p 1024 -n 2" Digigram audioadapter Thanks for any thoughts about these drop-outs! And please let me know if there are other troubleshooting tools available. Best, ~David Klann
