now ssh -X into remote host, start qjackctl and hope for a forwarded

pops up.
this doesn't happen with other gui apps. i use several xosviews on
several hosts frequently without problems.
any guesses as to what might be going on?
Just a guess, I haven't looked at the source:
Probably all those "use one app only per X-session" check with the X-session
whether an instance by that name is already running. If yes, they just make it
focus, otherwise the app is started.
As with "ssh -X" or "ssh -Y" (later is more secure) the X-session of
your
local machine is accessible from the remote machine, the remote qjackctl
checks whether an app named qjackctl is running and quits itself again...
Running multiple qjackctl instances is probably difficult at least when using
the systray icon.
Have fun,
Arnold
