Hi list,
I am happily using Jitsi for various tasks since a few weeks and would
like to run its application image
https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet-electron/releases/
over jackd.
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

thanks for all ideas!

Hmm, 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 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.
Anyone having ideas about having chromium use jackd then besides the
above?
cheers, P
