Do pulseaudio applications work? I route pulseaudio through Jack (meaning that the primary control of the device rests with Jack) using the following script:
Attachment:
pulsejack
Description: Binary data
It requires Pulseaudio to be already running and _not_ hogging the device. This can usually be achieved by firing up pavucontrol and settings its operating mode to "Off" for the soundcard you want to control via Jack. Then you start up jackd in your usual way, following up by calling pulsejack without arguments, or you give the arguments with which you want to see jackd started to the pulsejack script. I don't see the point in letting Jack route things through Pulseaudio rather than the other way round. Jackd is good with exact timing and realtime response, Pulseaudio is good with muddling along and making things connect and work somehow. -- David Kastrup
