I'm sure it used to be at the bottom of this page it had a note about how going the ALSA Loopback route would stop you being able to change settings from within QJackCtl, and just at the same point I read it there was a thread on here by somebody not being able to set up Jack through QJackCtl which at the time I assumed must be related. Can't see any comment on it anywhere at all now though... http://jackaudio.org/faq/routing_alsa.html But obviously that would be unacceptable and why I never tried re-routing ALSA.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 That's the reason I removed QJackQtl entirely. Cadence is doing a much better job, IMHO QJackQtl should be depreciated in favour of Cadence. You can control Jack bridges for ALSA and PulseAudio from within Cadence. No more headdache.
Actually pretty certain I was confused when I wrote that. It would be the Pulse Via Jack page that had the unable-to-control-jack-settings comment at the bottom and part of the reason for me going the Flash-Jack-plugin route (even if I did have to compile it myself.) But running US-14.04 there was really no need to do that if you're happy to keep PA running on your system, as it automatically creates Pulse-Jack-sinks which seemed to work fine enough until I disabled them...
But I really don't agree with the idea of having so many audio systems, often all running in tandem! I want to keep most my playback through Jack as I like its routing options, so I'm happy enough to have it start at login. When I have some time I will have a look at the ALSA-Jack bridge but as I thought US was configured around PA and believed my FF plugin (VLC) used GStreamer I had tried setting everything related to these to Jack.
Anyway going a bit off topic here. Think we should best keep it to the original poster's problem. As I said I can live with as it is, especially as I'm planning on having a play with different distros so until I settle down again I'm not going to worry about the smaller things I can live with ;-)
