Re: Problems with PulseAudio config
I switched from Xubuntu to Manjaro in 2015 because they were 12 months behind on PulseAudio. (IIRC Ubuntu was still using v5.0 when I had v8.0) PulseAudio 16.1 has a bugfix for module-combine-sink: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/-/releases/v16.1 Fix frequent crashing in module-...

Re: Mute/unmute a JACK/ALSA output from command line?
To mute/unmute ALSA output I use: amixer sset --quiet --card=0 'PCM' mute amixer sset --quiet --card=0 'PCM' unmute Users on other systems may need a different card number (or name) for the correct audio device and a different name for the relevant ALSA mixer control e.g. Master, Speaker, Headphones...

Re: Odd Distorted Audio Issue in Ubuntu Studio 23.04
I'm now wondering if Canonical did something with their audio stack Ubuntu Studio seems to have done something that is not beneficial for pro-audio users we have switched to utilized PipeWire by default with the JACK and PulseAudio plugins. This means that, without configuration, all JACK and Pulse...

Re: How hard is life without PulseAudio?
Can you hack Firefox, VLC Media Player, OBS, Tangerine, and others to run using ALSA/JACK only? VLC settings allow use of ALSA or JACK. OBS can be configured to use audio sources from JACK or ALSA Firefox can support ALSA or JACK if it has been built with options --enable-alsa or --enable-jack Get ...

Re: No Jack or 48KHz Alsa
D-Bus should be negotiating the release of your audio interface from PulseAudio for use in JACK I had a similar problem with D-Bus about 3 years ago because of a minor code error and had to find the scripts from Archwiki I used before D-Bus https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PulseAudio/Examples#The_sh...

What's the possible effect, if this value would be doubled, so: max_user_watches = 1048576 ??? Could this have any effect on reducing Xruns? setting the value too high will use more RAM max_user_watches parameter sets the maximum number of files your system can monitor with inotify (which is part o...

Re: lexicon omega: 2 channels instead of 4 ?
same error as before
check if QjackCtl settings changed to 2 capture channels
reboot system if new settings are not being recognised
when JACK is started with 2 capture channels, the alsa_in command can add the other 2 channels
Code: Select all
ALSA: cannot set channel count to 4 for capture
reboot system if new settings are not being recognised
when JACK is started with 2 capture channels, the alsa_in command can add the other 2 channels

Re: Starting jack in terminal, Cadence does not "see" it
Could you use Patchage instead of Catia?
I suspect you have jackd installed if Cadence cannot see it
if jackd is replaced with jack2 the same start command should work - /usr/bin/jackd
but if jackd was replaced with jack-dbus may need to adjust start command to - /usr/bin/jackdbus
