That's even better -- I found this morning that it's not enough to kill jackdbus (yes, the off list message suggested "killall -9 jackdbus"). I also have to hack ~/.config/jack/conf.xml before starting jack... which is getting to be pretty well insane, so indeed, dbus is way more trouble than it's worth for me. From: Ralf Mardorf > Audio for my Vbox does work without PA. I stand corrected, then. But, my daily-use setup is working quite well, even with pulse, so the question for me is, is it worth it to "fix" something that is "broken" only because pulse ranks somewhere between bats' intestines and dogs' do's among audio professionals? Maybe not... From: david > Unity is default for Ubuntu 12.04. You can install XFCE from the > repositories and use it instead. Ditching Unity is one of the first things I did after the upgrade, not only because of the CPU-hungry compositing effects but also, I couldn't find anything.
