Manjaro Cinnamon is a community supported release https://osdn.net/projects/manjaro-community/storage/cinnamon/18.1.5/ Manjaro does not have RT kernel by default on any ISO but kernel can be changed in Manjaro Settings Manager GUI changing to RT kernel is not sufficient for low latency audio suggest...

if JACK is started + both cards have Pulseaudio Profile set to Off
then need Pulseaudio JACK Sink for audio playback to JACK

if not already added when JACK started

I want all audio go trough the internal soundcard (without jack) and all going trough the external one when jack is started for external soundcard set Pulseaudio Profile to Off if Pulseaudio is not switching from internal soundcard to jack_out default sink, can change internal soundcard Profile to ...

Pulseaudio default sink is saved to home folder in ~/.config/pulse/

to see current default sink:


to change it to use Pulseaudio JACK Sink:


OR install pasytray

check volume levels for the pulseaudio sinks pactl list sinks | grep -e 'Name' -e 'Volume' presumably null-sink is by-passing level control for regular sink set with level lower than 100% would get same level for recording if regular sink was set to 100%, but likely would be too loud for comfortable...

only 8 modules listed in pulseaudio is much lower than i would expect and except for JACK sink and source, no ALSA or Bluetooth devices shown for input or output listing for Bluetooth modules in /etc/pulse/default.pa is as expected for default but as Bluetooth modules not loaded, system may be using...

suggest check bluetooth modules in pulseaudio

and

Lubuntu is good lightweight desktop and was a good base for a DAW when i used it

Should be not much difference to Ubuntu or Mint to add KX repositories and install

i find JACK works better at 48kHz compared to 44.1kHz with most audio interfaces

This appears to be a line level audio DAC device has USB connection from PC, 2*XLR outputs & a mono/stereo switch no hardware controls like some interfaces so level settings should be in alsamixer 'this unit complies with part 15 of the FCC rules' = class-compliant if it is visible in ALSA, sugg...

I am primarily interested in switching the master instead of restarting jack completely. do not see how you can switch out system device that is part of the command to start JACK without restarting maybe if started JACK with dummy device, then alsa_in and alsa_out commands to load ALSA device would...

I spent a couple of years trying to get ALSA loopbacks and never found a solution that worked well but Pulseaudio Jack Sink/Source connections have been no problem for me since Pulseaudio v6.0 it isn't necessary for a lot of audio tasks but many users still want to hear Pulseaudio I find Pulseaudio ...

turning pulseaudio off, is virtually impossible, for anyone without any real linux know how. For Ubuntu and other distributions using systemd, to stop Pulseaudio for current session: systemctl --user stop pulseaudio.socket pulseaudio.service Replace 'stop' with 'start' to turn it back on without re...

I got no sound when Jack is running. All youtube videos just freeze also That is likely to be a problem with audio playback in Pulseaudio trying to play to ALSA device taken by JACK check if you have module-jackdbus-detect in Pulseaudio: pactl list short modules |grep 'jackdbus' if not, you need to...

I meant that it was not following the open source ethic to incorporate some package or other into a piece of software such that the piece of software becomes exclusive. As for name calling, all I did was point out that it is in breach of what is the accepted opensource software 'contract' to publis...

I have always been advised to never run pulsaudio as a system wide instance, for security reasons. Pulseaudio documentation confirms it is usually not good to run Pulseaudio as system-wide daemon But Pulseaudio running under systemd is not running as system-wide daemon it still uses daemon.conf and...
