Hi, It sounds like you have some other audio program running. That program would have grabbed the sound card and hence Jack cannot get it. Make sure that esound or other audio applications are not running and using the AP2496 before starting Jack and you'll probably do better. Check the Gnome Sound Preferences and ensure that the Gnome sound server was not started, at least for debug purposes.
