This may be your problem...

At least in my setup, Rivendell wants jack running as root and I let it
start my jack according to a config I do in rdadmin.

This means my other stuff that wants to talk to jack needs to run as root
too.

This requires some fun setup tricks at boot time if I am doing any decent
amount of jack trickery.

Hopefully my memory is not playing tricks on my with this next bit.

I keep wanting to be able to run multiple independent instances of jack as
different users. I could let riv run jack as root and do all the riv stuff
as root while also running jack as another user with a different sound card
and doing non-riv stuff with that.

Does anyone know if this is possible these days? If not, does anyone know
if the underlying design of jack prevents this?

So Pedro,

how is jack being started on your system and by which user?

all the best,

drew
