Does anyone have an idea how I could best do this, also avoiding pulse audio? So far it seems that the only way is to use the alsa jack pcm plugin https://jackaudio.org/faq/routing_alsa.html or use alsa loopback device and jack alsa_in/alsa_out clients https://alsa.opensrc.org/Jack_and_Loopback_device_as_Alsa-to-Jack_bridge thanks for all ideas! PeterHmm, I tried it using their free website connection via Firefox. My headset worked fine with the browser and jitsi. I have PulseAudio set to use jack-sink, that's the only way I can get sound out of Firefox.You might want to look into the apulse wrapper as well.
I tried that, too. Didn't work at all.
I haven't tried the app image - I've had no luck running application images on my system. I've installed their native Linux client but haven't tried it yet.It turns out a few minutes ago that they just introduced a fatal bug for their AppImage https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet-electron/issues/244 which might affect you as well.
I've never been able to make any AppImage work on my system. The best results I've gotten was a locked-up app with a blank screen. The rest of my Debian system was fine. So I've just been leaving AppImages and Ubuntu's Snaps alone.
Anyone having ideas about having chromium use jackd then besides the above?
Hmm, haven't run Chromium on any system at all. Ideas about
Peter's request, anyone?
