Hi, I could be incorrect, but I seem to recall that Jack doesn't work with the Audioscience drivers, so this might not even be a potential solution for Mark.
On another note, I did mange to get Jack and Rivendell 3 running under the logged in user, it took some messing around with the systemd files (I can't stand systemd, can we get rid of it?) but there were a couple of other things that I found which then broke, so I can't recommend going that route. The easiest is probably to just add another sound card. > > On Fri, 2019-10-18 at 11:58 -0400, al davis wrote: > > On Fri, 18 Oct 2019 15:44:21 +0000 > > Mark Murdock <[email protected]> wrote: > > > However for production we use Audacity, and when I start Audacity it does > > > not recognize the sound card, and thus does not work.
