What's your soundcard? I think being able to open a sound device multiple times is
dependent on if the hardware supports that. I can run jack and xmms (without the jack
plugin) concurrently on my sb512.

Now that I think about it, no, I'm not sure about that. I've usually
reserved JACK use for Ardour, so I might not have ever tried running a
non-JACK app with the server open.
Greetings:
I'm having an interesting problem with JACK (0.81.1). When running it
I can't start non-JACK apps, e.g., after starting JACK (with Rui's neat
qjackctl) I'm unable to open Snd until I stop JACK. Is this expected
behavior ? I hope not...
Are you sure you could do it with other versions of Jack? I don't know how Snd works, but it seems probable
that it opens the
sound-device on startup. And if it is occupied by a sound-server, any
sound-server, the app may not start.
I'm pretty sure Snd operates in just that manner, and I understand what
you're telling me. I also tried opening it with jacklaunch but got no
joy. :(
