[04:27] <pieq> Hi!
[04:27] <pieq> Eickmeyer, hi! Still around?
[04:28] <Eickmeyer> pieq: More or less. What's up?
[04:30] <pieq> Eickmeyer, I'm all good! My friend lent me back his laptop this morning, so I'm reinstalling Ubuntu and setting up the audio for him to be able to work with Ardour and his USB Focusrite interface
[04:30] <pieq> I'm now using Carla instead of Gladish, but I still cannot find the external laptop speakers
[04:30] <pieq> Eickmeyer, in Ubuntu Studio Controls, what does "USB device that should be Master" mean?
[04:30] <Eickmeyer> So, what that means is that despite what is master in the internal card setting, you can override it with an audio device plugged-in via USB.
[04:31] <Eickmeyer> From the wiki: USB device that should be Master: If so desired, this enables you to configure JACK to treat a connected external USB audio device, such as a USB audio interface, to be treated as if it were the internal master audio device, overriding the setting set above.

[04:32] <pieq> Eickmeyer, ah! Thanks, I hadn't read this section of the doc
[04:33]  * Eickmeyer is making a mental note that he'll have to copy this to the Studio Controls wiki as we upstreamed the project
[04:34] <pieq> ha! now I can see my internal speakers, indeed
[04:35] <Eickmeyer> Perfect.
[04:35] <pieq> Eickmeyer, thanks! But looks like I still can't hear them
[04:35] <pieq> even though they are connected in Carla... weird
[04:35] <Eickmeyer> Check qasmixer or alsamixer.
[04:36] <pieq> Eickmeyer, halleluja!!! QAsmixer did it for me!
[04:36] <Eickmeyer> Sweeeet. Sometimes alsa likes to kill the volume, so that was my first clue.
[04:37] <pieq> Eickmeyer, it looks like there was some volume, but it was super low and that's why I couldn't hear anything
[04:37] <pieq> qasmixer is "just" a GUI equivalent to alsamixer?
[04:37] <Eickmeyer> Yep. It's simply a GUI for alsamixer written in Qt.
[04:38] <Eickmeyer> Simple, and does the job.
[04:38] <pieq> Eickmeyer, thanks a lot! By the way, remember the problem I had with Ardour taking 45 seconds to load? I suspect it's the version in KXStudio that was creating this issue, cause with the ones from the usual repo, it's loading instantly (or almost)
[04:39] <Eickmeyer> Interesting. BTW, we did find a bug that affected ardour that you might want to be aware of.
[04:39] <Eickmeyer> Lemme see if I can dig it up.
[04:39] <Eickmeyer> bug 1877806
[05:01] <pieq> Eickmeyer, thanks for pointing it out
[12:15] <jaystraw> hey ya'll. my desktop has been running ubuntu studio for a long time. I run lsb_release -a and get 18.04, but the command line upgrades (that I've found) to 20.04 don't work. I downloaded the 20.04 iso and the installer tells me I still have the previous LTS version, 16.04
[15:57] <Eickmeyer> jaystraw75: Upgrades from LTS to LTS aren't enabled until the first .1 release (20.04.1 due in July). If you wish to manually upgrade, use "update-manager -d" or "do-release-upgrade -d".
[17:25] <Neeknaim> Hello
[17:26] <Neeknaim> I'm using ubuntu-studio on (kubuntu 20.04). It seems that Ardour crashes almost every time I double-click Yoshimi from the mixer tab.
[17:26] <Neeknaim> Has anyone encountered this?
[17:28] <Eickmeyer> Neeknaim: I just tried to reproduce your issue and could not. Might be somewhere in your configs.
[17:28] <Neeknaim> Deleting Ardour's config files might help solve this?
[17:29] <Eickmeyer> Perhaps.
[19:23] <jaystraw75> Thank you Eickmeyer
