To my mind this is why I have always asked new app developers that don't have a Jack interface to add Jack support, so that I can use multiple apps at the same time. As someone else pointed out, doesn't using multiple apps place some interesting requirements on the hardware? What does the hardware do if the apps are running at different frequencies? Anyway, for me the problem you site has always been there, and is the best reason for all Linux sound apps to support Jack. Cheers, Mark
