[LAU] Starting qjackctl with pulse

[Glen MacArthur]

Hi,

You might find this guide I just did interesting: 
http://bandshed.net/forum/index.php?topic=3937.0

It is specific to AV Linux, but it's application should be broad
enough for any Ubuntu or Debian version, It seems to make everything
play very nicely together with Qjackctl here.

If you find it doesn't work you can simply uninstall the package in
the guide with Synaptic, it doesn't write any configuration changes on
your system.

Let me know if you need help,

Glen

Subject:[LAU] Starting qjackctl with pulse

I'm trying to get pulse and jack to be nice to each other. Running
ubuntu 16.10 with cinnamon desktop.

I have a pretty simple system. The result of "aplay -l" shows that my
main card being used is:

 card 1: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 1: ALC892 Digital [ALC892
Digital]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

Of course, since I'm running pulse, aplay -L changes this to:

  pulse
    PulseAudio Sound Server

So, now I *think* I know my default routing. It's just pulse sending
stuff to hw:1,0. Now, of course, pulse doesn't tell me this. It says
I'm using "Analog Stereo Output (unplugged)" from the PulseAudio
Volume Control configuration menu.

Starting up qjackctl I go to settings. There is no pulse driver, so I
select (I think incorrectly!) the alsa driver and HW:PCH,1 and start
jack.

It appears that it's started and running.

Back to the terminal and try to play a file using aplay. Hmmm ... no
output!

Back to pulse volume ctl. Input Devices shows a jack port. But, no
output.

I really don't understand this at all. Help. Please.
