I'm familiar with the importance of

than hw:1.
cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [SB ]: HDA-Intel - HDA ATI SB
HDA ATI SB at 0xfcef8000 irq 16
1 [DSP ]: H-DSP - Hammerfall DSP
RME Hammerfall DSP + Digiface at 0xfcff0000, irq 20
2 [NVidia ]: HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia
HDA NVidia at 0xfe57c000 irq 32
see the names in square brackets? use them to tell JACK what to use:
jackd -d alsa -d hw:DSP .....
then the discovery order doesn't matter anymore.
AUUUGGH! You can give it names instead of numbers?
I never knew that; I've been limping along for years now. In 2007 I spent many hours
writing a whole bunch of convoluted Python scripts to try to hack around having to specify
hw: in numbers. Gah.
Thanks, wow. Glad there's a better way.
