THANK YOU!!! It works!
I feel stupid - really the only reason I wasn't getting sound was I had
the wrong input selected on my Firewire Solo box.. I was sure FreeBob
wasn't working, because aplay -l didn't work, and it hadn't occurred to
me to try starting Ardour, but as soon as I did I saw that it was
showing the inputs and outputs from my Firewire Solo.
I can't tell you how great it feels to get audio, after a week of
struggling with this!!
Cheers,
Katie

Hi, I apologize for cross-posting, as I've
already sent this to the Ubuntu

I need some help getting Freebob to work with my new M-Audio Firewire Solo
device instead of a soundcard.
When I run gscanbus, the Firewire Solo is recognised, but when I do
$ aplay -l
Alsa does not handle FW-cards
$ jackd -d freebob
without the Solo plugged in, Jack won't start. But if the Solo is
plugged in Jack will start, and I get the messages:
JACK compiled with System V SHM support.
loading driver ..
SSE2 detected
Freebob using Firewire port 0, node -1
libiec61883 warning: Established connection on channel 0.
You may need to manually set the channel on the receiving node.
libiec61883 warning: Established connection on channel 1.
You may need to manually set the channel on the receiving node.
I get the very same message and after it I can use a Presonus Firebox
without any trouble via Jack. So this does not look like a source of
trouble to me :-)
But still I don't get any sound.
What does this mean in detail? What happens, if you start Ardour - do
the IN/OUT ports of the port show up in "connections"?
What happens, if you start qjackctl *after* you have jackd with freebob
up and running?
I have no idea what 'manually set the
channel on the receiving node' means.
Me neither - but I do not have any trouble with that.
Also, I don't know if this is meaningful in
any way, but when I open
qjackctl and go to setup, the 'input device', 'output device',
'input
channels', and 'output channels' drop-down boxes are greyed out.
the greyed out options do not apply to the freebob backend, if there is
something to set, freebob does it.
