Toby, there is an option for you here. Install the alsa-jack plugin, and add the neccessary text to your .asoundrc. This will route all alsa based sound through jack. http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php/Jack_%28plugin%29 If that link doesn't work for you, then go to the unofficial wiki on the alsa main page, and search for the jack plugin. You'll also see the syntax for your .asoundrc on the jack plugin page. http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php/ALSA_plugins Basically, you install the plugin, then add something like this to the .asoundrc: pcm.!default { type plug slave { pcm "jack" } } pcm.jack { type jack playback_ports { 0 alsa_pcm:playback_1 1 alsa_pcm:playback_2 } capture_ports { 0 alsa_pcm:capture_1 1 alsa_pcm:capture_2 } } ctl.mixer0 { type hw card 0 } ..................................... This works fine for me using gentoo 64bit RT. In addition, if you want any flash (blech) playback through jack, then you can add libflashsupportjack, which i guess is in most distro repos. It's in Gentoo, anyway. I stress here i've only tested this with 64bit. I've gone a bit commando with linux, and use lynx and mutt these days, but i do crank up firefox occasionally, and all the audio works fine through jack. I'm sure much wiser linux minds than mine will enthusiastically step in if i've given you wrong info here. Good luck, Alex. -- www.openoctave.org midi-subscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx development-subscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
