One reason not to use jack for all your sounds is you
don't want mouse
clicks, OS warnings and "you've got mail" sounds going to your audience
or recording.
Why not?
I have read somewhere that someone (one of the TOPLAP dudes, I think)
actually made a performance using only those.
But anyways, I get your point (and I agree), however, I have been
performing with a computer for 13 years or so and a trick I learned
very early on (like, after the first rehearsal) is that one turns off
all annoying sounds of the desktop on a computer that one intends to
do audio with. Does it really have to be governed by the audio server
I choose to use? I think that I prefer to turn all that stuff off
forever.
And the all time winner of the most annoying sounds is the a major
chord from apple computer when you boot it... Especially through the
PA system when you least expect it.
