I can jump back and forth between Ardour and Audacity and play them alternately or or even simultaneously. This is without selecting anything at all - just run and start Jack with QJackCtl, run Ardour and load a session, run Audacity and load a file, and have at it. So, if this comment is irrelevant ignore it, but from my experience I don't see your problem. Frank
