There is a tool named jack_wait which may help with that. I do not have it on
my machine currently and I have lost track of which repository carries that.
I am away from my machine most of this weekend, if you are not successful
searaching for it perhaps I can try to find it later.
That got sorted out, but when I came to testing my
code, it seems to set
up the connection to jack even when I've stopped jack (actually
jackdbus). Is this because pipewire is intercepting the requests
The pipewire server has optional JACK support. If pipewire is providing the
JACK server then yes, when you start JACK aware applications they will find the
Pipewire JACK server.
It will depend on how your distribution has configured pipewire, it may be as
simple as removing a package named something like pipewire-jack.
Is pipewire doing a complete replacement for jack?
It can. The pipewire server is modular, so acting as a JACK server is
optional, depending on whether the needed modules are installed or not.
