JACK trouble

Hello.
When I execute qjackctl and press the Start button, I get the following error from JACK:


12:31:55.710 jackd -R -dalsa -dhw:0 -r48000 -p1024 -n2
12:31:55.713 JACK was started with PID=13711 (0x358f).
jackd 0.103.0

Any ideas why this is happening?

Thanks.

Re: JACK trouble

Hi there,
I hope somebody knows the answer to this as I am having exactly the same problem.

I know it must be a permissions thing as I can qjackctl as root and it works fine. My user is in group audio so its not that.??

Re: JACK trouble

If you used "root" or a different account to start jack before, you might see this error message. Look under /dev/shm/, delete jack-shm-registry using root, and try again. Hope this helps smile

Re: JACK trouble

I think I have got this sussed. I downloaded  realtek-linux-audiopack-4.0.6a.tar.bz2 from http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/dow … Down=false
and installed it which enabled the midi passthrough interfaces on the VIA HDA 82xx/ALC888 soundchip and my problems went away.

This is only alsa with a different config. There must be differences in the configuration but I don't know enough to be able to suggest to devs how to deal with this. Maybe someone could make an alternative alsa package in the AUR.

Anyhoo. My sound now works heaps better even though it is a messy way to do it.

Regards Ross
