There is a tool named jack_wait which may help with that. I do not have it on my machine currently and I have lost track of which repository carries that. I am away from my machine most of this weekend, if you are not successful searaching for it perhaps I can try to find it later. > That got sorted out, but when I came to testing my code, it seems to set > up the connection to jack even when I've stopped jack (actually > jackdbus). Is this because pipewire is intercepting the requests The pipewire server has optional JACK support. If pipewire is providing the JACK server then yes, when you start JACK aware applications they will find the Pipewire JACK server. It will depend on how your distribution has configured pipewire, it may be as simple as removing a package named something like pipewire-jack. > Is pipewire doing a complete replacement for jack? It can. The pipewire server is modular, so acting as a JACK server is optional, depending on whether the needed modules are installed or not. -- Chris Caudle _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list -- linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to linux-audio-user-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
