alternatives to an USB audio interface are not an option, and under these
circumstances is this a case of poor packaging on Ubuntu's part, flaw in
jack's design and if so is there an intention intend to fix this in some
way by providing checks and balances within jack in case sound card
disappears, or is this kernel/alsa/driver issue--in this case it is a
lowlatency kernel. I'm not sure if I mentioned this in my original email
but this is on 64bit Ubuntu 14.04. Jack devs, I would love to hear from
you. Thank you.
Inserted a USB audio interface on my notebook and started JACK. Pulling
out the USB interface while JACK was still running froze the whole
notebook. I'd say that's not primarily a JACK issue, something at a
lower level probably goes wrong (Ubuntu 14.04, Jack2, kernel
3.16.0-50-generic).
