I've not done much of late, busy with other things, but I had cause to update Linux Mint to 19.3 last week. Just tried testing various things and hit problems with Jack. I'm running jackd2 1.9.12~dfsg-2 and get noises with nothing running, and when I try running some midi files via Calf Fluidsynth, the noises are nothing like what they should be. I then switched to using the latest Yoshimi (1.7.1, thanks Will) and that also produces
awful noises.

However, if I shut down jack, yoshimi happily switches to direct via Alsa and sounds perfect.

However, my sequencer (home-grown) relies on Jack, and Calf Fluidsynth also seems to be
fixed on using Jack.

Any ideas where to start tracking down this problem?

After trying various things I browsed the web a bit more and someone raised the issue of pulseadio. The AskUbuntu pages have an entry on hot to get Jack and PulseAudio to work together and recommended installing pulseaudio-module-jack (which was already
installed( and setting the Jack options to issue:
    pacmd set-default-sink jack_out
This has sorted the problem and my sound is back to how it used to be!
