you've made JACK the default ALSA device, so that portaudio connects
to it even when apparently using ALSA.

audacity & portaudio have *bad* JACK support. the .asoundrc file isn't
a workaround for that. portaudio's support isn't bad in and of itself,
but audacity insists on opening and closing its "device" every time it
starts and stops playing. totally broken system when combined with
JACK.
