Hi, I've been running the Lynx Beta and am really pleased with what I'm seeing. In particular the integrated support for jackd w/pulseaudio is nice. If jackd is started it handles pulseaudio nicely and my jack based apps work. I have one use case however I'm not sure is possible.
I occasionally stream like audio into SecondLife. The SecondLife client works nicely with pulseaudio. To do the streaming I've been using internet DJ console (built from source, I had some trouble with the one in the repo). That requires jack support. I start the secondlife client and audio is fine. Start Qjackctl and as expected it shutsdown pulseaudio and starts jackd. I can now run my streaming audio session. Ideally what I'd like to be able to do is keep both and be able to monitor the audio from secondlife as well. I tried configuring a new default.pa in my local .pulse directory and adding in the jack source and sink module for pulseaudio. If I do that when I login the gnome gui hangs until I move default.pa out of the way and kill pulseaudio. I tried ordering things differently in the default.pa file, load the standard drivers via HAL first and add in the jack module after. It looks like the jack module is hanging the PA server because it cant find a running jackd. I was hoping it acted more like a hotplug setup and made the jackd source and sink available when they came on line. Anyway, thats my use case. I can do without the secondlife audio if necessary when streaming but if I can get both that'd be ideal. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. The work that's gone into getting these two audio systems to behave in 10.04 alone is very nice. Thanks for that!
