Hmm. I hope it'll consistently work from now on. :)
All this gave me some headache as well back
when I started using aconnect, especially the
input/output naming.

If I where asked, I'd say it is a mistake in aconnect,
since Jack audio, Jack MIDI and qjackctl all handle
it the other way round. However, me (humble) just
assumed there is a valid reason from a dev POV
to name I/O towards the 'connecting entity' instead
of towards the 'application entity'.
Changing it now would certainly be a bad idea,
breaking all apps and scripts that rely on aconnect.


best,
