Jack configuration Qjackctl is not good with the multichannel device, but causes a lot of xruns. Therefore when you start the multichannel device use jackstart in a terminal, not using Qjackctl. My qjackctl uses jackstart to start jack by default. But, jackstart is not good enough for me (due to kernel issues it turns out, see Ardour users' mailing list archives if curious). So, I change the qjackctl setup to use jackd-realtime to start jack. It works beautifully. The rest of your howto is pretty clever. Cheers.... -- Kevin
