is switched on... Or, more precisely, that it is a LOT louder then. It is the same hum I've been having with Jack for ages, only softer than on my internal sound card. It happens as soon as I start jack and stops when I stop jack and is louder the less latency there is. WTF??? How odd. Dying to get a solution, it's been plaguing me for years. Note: It does get softer when I used an adapter to remove grounding of the notebook, but it's still there. How odd.
Hmmm - does it get louder when your CPU is working harder? When the CPU works really hard, is the computer's internal fan(s) running? Perhaps a small internal ground problem? I would assume that the lower your latency, the faster your CPU is doing things .. so the more need it has for cooling?
