Actually, we still have the problem and it will be hard to solve for a
"every one" default config. Depending of mother board chipset, and
mother sound chipset, the configuration of jackd could be different.
Second problem, every software, sound server, sink or what else generate
sound can use and access with a lot of different solution to the sound
card. The more you add software intermediate like pulse, gstreamer,
jack, etc... the more it is difficult to access to alsa with a good
latency. Second problem, wich software should have the priority ? And
third problem, for firewire sound cards, only jackd can run them at the
moment using freebob/ffado project.
So, for me, it is better to let the integrated sound chipset for
Gnome/Gstreamer/Pulse/etc... applications. And to have a second sound
card for audio applications, used only with jackd. It allow that the
audio work is not disturbed by system sounds, etc... Everybody who make
a bit of music with his/her computer do that, just because it solves the
problem. And don't tell me about prices, etc..., it is now very
affordable and easy to find a second pci/usb/firewire/pcmcia sound card.
And one who need quality sound will always use another sound card, at
least to have good a/d converters, even if he/she don't need a lot of
i/o.
So, for me the problem is not only the softwares on Ubuntu Linux, but
more the way people want to make music with. If you don't need a good
sound card on Windows or MacosX, you don't need one for Linux. If you
want to make music, whatever the system, you need a second sound card.
