Probably jack uses another sample format, Could you
try using jack
with two channels and 16 bits?
Also the USB MIDI interface seems to have stopped
working with this kernel.
Make sure that the OSS driver (usb-midi) is _not_ loaded.
Thanks again for your help. I submitted a bug report to the Ubuntu
kernel package maintainer and CONFIG_USB_BANDWIDTH is no longer set in
the default Ubuntu kernel (fixed in 2.6.12-5.5). I also managed to make
this work under 2.6.11 by increasing Periods/Buffer to 2, Frames/Period
to 2048 and choosing "Force 16 bit" in Jack.
It works ok but with high latency (~90ms). This is OK for me, I'm a
hobbyist. Also from what I understand USB audio has problems with
latency under Jack.
Thanks again,
Peter
