The PulseAudio sink for Jack works, but is unreliable on a laptop when suspending. Jack is also affected when suspending. On a desktop (without suspend), it is solid enough. I tried the method described here: http://alsa.opensrc.org/Jack_and_Loopback_device_as_Alsa-to-Jack_bridge It doesn't work for me; there's interruptions in the sound with Chrome, and it's worse with Firefox (there's echoes...) Can you share your method? Is the zita adapter required? One thing I need is multi-channel support (up to 8). -- Marc _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
