I understand that I should be able to basically start Jack using
jackd -d alsa -d hw:0
or
jackstart -R -d alsa -d hw -r 44100
However, it stops at
jackd -d alsa -d hw:0
loading driver ..
creating alsa driver ... hw:0|1024|2|48000|swmon|rt
I think it should set up channels, etc. Jack-dependent apps complain
that Jack isn't working.
Several times, it has done this correctly, but I can't understand why it
worked then but doesn't now. As far as I can see, the ALSA drivers are
loaded and working.
Do you have any other apps running before you start jack?
Did this happen several times over reboots or without rebooting?
Can you send us the version of jack you are using? It is provided when
starting jack?
Piping the output from the command
jackstart -R -d alsa -d hw -r 44100
to a text file produces the following (although I don't see the first
line nor anything from the second occurence of "jackd 0.71.1" onwards
when I launch it - I don't know why the text is getting repeated).
received signal 15 during shutdown (ignored)

I might have xawtv running, but no audio apps (and shutting xawtv down
doesn't have any effect). I always seem to get the problem - as I
mentioned, a couple of days ago I seemed to briefly be able to get it to
work, but I can't work out what I might have done differently. Rebooting
doesn't make any difference.
