Hi Steve, Probably a combination of bad luck, using (GUI?) utilities you don't need, with a dash of conceptual confusion, IMO. As others wrote, you don't need JACK unless you want to connect multiple JACK-aware audio apps. JACK doesn't reduce the latency inherent in the soundcard, or in the kernel. It is specialized, different, not better or worse than other audio services. The Linux audio users list is the authoritative forum for solving JACK-related issues. Steve, I don't see that you ever posted to that list. > So I'd settle for Pulse (or ALSA or OSS) over Jack simply because I can > actually get those installed. The short answer is that you don't need JACK at all.
