Hello all,

Is there any way to use logical device nammes instead of
'hw:a.b' when setting up Qjackctl ? It seems like the
easiest way to deal with hw device numbers changing on
each boot, but I haven't found a way to do it.
Editing ~/.jackdrc doesn't work, it just gets overwritten
with the (wrong) hw device names (and I wonder why this
is done).


afaics, you can use hw:SHORTNAME instead of the usual hw:NUMBER form, but that only helps if you can distinguish device names by their respective short-name ie. different device brand models.

device short-names maybe read from /proc/asound/cards, being the names found between [] brackets.

otoh, ~/.jackdrc is optionally rewritten by qjackctl, as seen convenient to replicate its settings when auto-starting jackd later, eventually outside qjackctl control.

nb. qjackctl never reads from ~/.jackdrc.

cheers
