Hi Len,

You are right. My test machine only has motherboard sound, and a USB
device (Alesis iO2) which is very portable (but only 2 inputs at a time).

Most of the time it "just works", and it is only when I fiddle that I
get myself into unusual states :-)

But I will test and report back.

Incidently, we should probably create a suite of manual tests we could
point testers at between now and 20.04 (LTS):
http://packages.qa.ubuntu.com/
We have not used it for a few releases, but it could be resurrected.

[ubuntu-studio-devel] -controls tweaks

2019-04-27 Thread Len Ovens
Rather than mucking up the bug comments... Ross, I think that you were the 
one who has only a USB device. In any case, that should also be fixed as a 
part of correcting defaults. please check for this. Removing 
~/.config/autojackrc should show if th9is is so. you should not have to 
set up USB as master expicitely it should do that on it's own. The jack 
master box should sho USB and the USB master box should show your device.


In a new install, jack is disabled at boot and in order to start jack the 
user has to open -controls and select start jack. Start jack will save the 
configuration and use it to start jack. This should default to using your 
USB device without you having to select it.


I can't test this without taking my machine apart and removing cards and 
later reinstalling them. Doing this repeatedly will cause problems sooner 
rather than later as the PCI slots are not high use plugs.
