Yes that has been available for some time. in /etc/pulse/default.pa there is a line like: load-module module-jackdbus-detect Change it to: load-module module-jackdbus-detect connect=no And pulse will not auto connect. I have had this set on my system and a jack session set up to just connect what I want. The number of channels Pulse bridges has quite a large effect on cpu use. > This is required if any processing is done before the signal goes > to the hardware (room correction or EQ, crossover filters, etc.). > It is also required if PA is providing e.g. a telephone signal > which probably should connect to a SW mixer and not directly to > the HW output. I agree. The pa-jack bridge is still in development, though I think it is not that near the top of the list of priorities :) The channels=x parameter is in git I am told, but not in the release packages I am aware of. There is also some talk about moving the package system defaults to /usr/share so that a distro can drop it's own config file into /etc/pulse without over writing the package defaults. There is also ~/.config/pulse/ where a user could add this. Though to be honest I am not sure how. -- Len Ovens www.OvenWerks.net _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
