I'm running gentoo kernel 2.20-gentoo-r8.
I start jack (0.91.1) with jackd -vR -d alsa ,as root.
muse is working (if started as root)
so is ardour
But when I try Alsaplayer -o jack somefile.someformat,
it says "Failed to load output plugin "jack". Trying defaults."
When I shut down jack alsaplayer starts playing perfectly
Does it have something to do with the asoundrc-science?
I tried copiing the jack-plugin text for .asoundrc somewhere
from the alsa-site, the same result
I thought it should work without the .asoundrc,but maybe I'm wrong.
Anyone knows what I'm missing?
emerge -vp jack-audio-connection-kit.
I think you will not see jack as a flag. I had the same problem this morning
for some reason. Check to make sure you have the jack flag in make.conf and
make sure you are using the ~x86 version. For some reason it looked like the
current stable version doesn't use jack, so I went to ~x86 and everything
was fine.
