It's not possible to start jackd on more than one soundcard. You can, however use ecasound's jack output to kind of simulate it. Start jackd on the AC97 card, then issue the command: ecasound -B:rtlowlatency -f:s16,2,44100 -z:nomultitrack -z:nointbuf -o:jack -i:alsa,<iMic ALSA device> This is based on a script that I had set up to do something similar. I can't quite remember why all of those options are there, so they might not be necessary. This may be a little unstable, but it's much better than trying to keep the soundcards synced properly. No guarantees, YMMV. Regards, Nathan Callahan
