Jack and pulseaudio routing

Hi everyone, I don't know if it's the right place. I wanted to report a change regarding the possibility of redirecting the audio stream of pulseaudio to and from jack. In the wiki (italian language) a procedure is explained which, apparently, in the latest versions, it is no longer necessary. I was able to get that working by simply installing jack2 instead of jack and installing the pulseaudio-jack package. In the qjackctl program it is necessary to activate "D-bus jack". When jack is started, a bridge to puleaudio is automatically created and applications that are using pulseaudio as output can be redirected to jack. Maybe what I have written is already known to many, but, relative to what is indicated in the wiki, it is not necessary to add anything to the file /etc/pulse/default.pa. The commands for this functionality are already implemented. Even the installation of "cadence" is superfluous. Apparently, on my machine, everything is already working correctly.

Moving to Wiki discussion.

I'm not sure whether you'll reach the relevant contributors to the italian wiki here, if you want to suggest changes to a particular section the best way is to open a discussion on the relevant wiki page directly.

Thanks, V1del.

I just wanted to point it out but, after all, I don't think it's that important. In the English wiki version this has already been written, probably the Italian wiki is not that updated.
