First glance appears that I may be able to bypass the alsa bridge with
what's showing up in the patch in UBS12.04. But, I need to determine
where and how the pulse connections in qjackctrl are being made. The log
doesn't show a script being run by jack start.
They are being made by pulse. Any config changes will also have to be made
in pulse. The fact that capture/playback 0 is being called no number would
be firewire I would guess. I know less about FW than I would like to (less
about pulse setup than I would like to as well). However, Pulse expects to
live in the ALSA world where captures start at 1 not 0 (the 0 being blank
seems to be a standard linux kernel thing).
None of the stuff in /etc/pulse seems to be helpful. I do wonder if it
would be possible to add a jack file to
/usr/share/pulseaudio/alsa-mixer/profile-sets/
I will see what I can find out. (I have other reasons for finding this
stuff out)
So far my poking around on the net indicates that dbus service between
pulse and jack are involved. (if you uncheck the start dbus in
qjackctrl only the firewire source/sinks show up).
The pulse source/sinks are provided by pulseaudio-module-jack.
What control over how things are named or created is still
unknown...to me at least.
