jack uses 2 ports for input and 2 for output. I have a SoundBlaster 5.1vx card, and I would like to use a "line-out" plug for monitoring. But when I try to get jack to reserve four extra outputs by using the switch "-o 4", it gives me an error.
View 2 RepliesI've got an Acer Aspire 5101 with Natty on it and everything works so far, but I can't start Muse. It says: "Muse failed to find a jack audio server". At the bottom it also says: "...if Jack was started check if it was started as the same user as Muse". This might be the issue. But how can I check this? BTW: Jackd has been installed and I am a Member of the Audio Group.
I am new to Ubuntu and don't know how to fix this. I got this Notebook for free, because my Brother wanted to dispose it as it didn't worked properly after he reinstalled xp. Only the dvd-drive is broken, the rest is in really good condition for such an old thing. After a lot of trial and error I could finally install Natty from USB.
The Green jack for audio of the sound card is dead. The other jacks [Blue and Pink] are not working for audio. I have them working as audio outputs in windows xp-using the Realtek interface.How can I do the same in Ubuntu?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI try it for the first time. Befor I changed to linux I used MS Windows 7. There I worked much with SonyVegas for video and Adobe Auditon for music. Yesterday I searched for alternatives under Linux for Audition. And I found much. The screen shots says, that they look similar to Auditon. I downloaded them and installed them. But they doesn't work. One of them say they can't connect to Jack. Some of them say nothing, and so they don't record my line in/microphone input. After a few seconds I of search, I knew that all of these programs uses jack for Audio. I installed it, but the situation wasn't better. Then I found a wiki, and try that: first start jack, than start the program. So I do. But there i get a few error messages: At first I should copy to lines to the file lines.conf. I do it. Then I should be member of the audio group. I do that.

I start with Rosegarden. Failed to connect to JACK audio server. Try my other applications, same problem.
Basically the JACK audio server just WILL NOT RUN (correctly). I can sudo it and press start, but still it wont "play with" the applications! Heres the error message from JACK (I also get related errors when I try to do ANYTHING involving music creation):

Here is the "fatal error" from MusE

I finally got audio working on my ubuntu 9.10 desktop... now I am having sound issues watching movies from a network share.The sound device continually randomly changes to "dummy output device" and then there is no sound output. The sound icon dissapears on the toolbar.

View 7 Replies View RelatedSay I have 2 speakers connected to 2 different sound cards. Under Windows, is it possible to have some sort of virtual device that would forward an audio stream to both sound cards? If this can't be easily done under Windows, a solution for Linux is also fine. lternatively, if the 2 speakers are connected to different channels of a sound card, is there any vendor-independent way to duplicate audio to both channels?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have HP Pavilion laptop with two jack outs for audio and both of them work if only one is plugged in. If both of jacks are used, then in only one headphones set there is a sound. I would like to have sound on both of them, so for example two people can listen the same thing on their own headphones.
I'm working on Ubuntu 10.04 and my sound card is:
Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)
I am running Karmic (9.10) on an MSI U120 Wind. I dislike netbook-remix but that is beside the point.
Last night I made the biggest mistake of my life which is causing a loss of still counting hours. I decided to do an update, due to having enough bandwidth, and security updates to download.
So it finished, and I went to sleep.
This morning I went to plug in my speakers to the audio jack so I can listen to music loud, and it was all distorted. I changed al 8 or 9 volume controls and nothing. I unplugged the wire from the audio jack, and the sound is perfect on my netbook's speakers.
I have tried different wires, speakers, editing config files, removing and purging related packages, and nothing works...
I have been google-ing for hours and everyone seems to have the same problem, but all of the supposed fixes do not work for me...

I fear switching back to winblowz..
whenever I try and start it, it spits this at me: p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; } Could not connect to JACK server as client. - Overall operation failed. - Unable to connect to server. Please check the messages window for more info.its all greek to me I fiddled with some basic settings, but to no avail, I'm running a dell dimension 9150 with a stock soundcard. To be honest, I don't know what Jack is, but it opens when I open DJplay, so I'm guessing its like Asio4all when running deckadance?

View 1 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone have any experience of forwarding audio from Ubuntu to Windows 7 x64 via JACK? I'm struggling to find any useful documentation. I've tried to accomplish the same using a Pulseaudio server, which is better documented but the windows binaries are years old and as far as I can tell can't be made to work without disabling IPv6. Any other ways to forward audio would also be welcome. Bandwidth isn't really an issue as it's VM to VM on the same machine.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have had no problems whatsoever with audio in ubuntu 10.10. Both input and output have worked great, but alas now there's a problem.
I recently installed ardour2 with jack (using apt-get) but for some reason, anytime I start ardour2 (which starts jack implicitly) all audio stops on the whole computer. That is my computer goes silent. As soon as I exit ardour2 audio resumes.
Also, although this will probably resolve itself when I resolve the other problem, when exporting a project to audio file from ardour2 it exports silence for the entire duration, even when ardour2 is exited and audio has resumed.
I'm no linux novice, so I'm not afraid of command line solutions (I prefer them actually) however I know nothing about jack or audio editing in linux whatsoever, so if you could be very specific about jack terminology that would be great.
I'm looking for configuring a Ubuntu box, we need to capture alsa output into ffmpeg with jack or OSS but not pulseaudio, as that tends to glitch badly. We have things working, but we are sort of hacking around in the dark, we play music, but as we aren't linux audio experts ourselves.

View 4 Replies View Relatedboth audio inputs (I use the integrated mic on my notebook) and jack-sense (integrated speakers/headphones) work properly, as they should. But after some time (from few minutes up to several hours) both of them cease to work simultaneously. After that the mic input levels turning gray and speakers don't work at all (when headphones were connected at that moment) or speakers don't mute when I connect my headphones (if headphones were not connected then). After I reboot, everything is okay again for some time, but then it happens again. Setting mixer levels manually with alsamixer doesn't help at all. I also tried different snd-hda-intel model settings in alsa.conf, but that just made things messed up, so I stayed with auto setting. This way everything (inputs/outputs/sense) works as should until it simply stops working.
It's maverick, ALC268, ATI Azalia (Intel HDA), alsa 1.0.23, but I had this problem with karmic and lucid as well when I tried them. Now I want to switch from Win7, but this is the only thing keeping me from it.
