h00kOvenWerks: you don't happen to be around, do you?01:45
OvenWerkshalf and half.01:46
h00kI'm futzin for a bit, anyway.01:46
OvenWerksjust waiting for my wife to get here01:47
OvenWerksthen we go to eat I think01:47
h00kOvenWerks: I'm pretty sure it's Ardour I need to learn to use01:52
OvenWerksThat is what i think too01:53
OvenWerksh00k: have you seen these ones: https://community.ardour.org/community#videos02:03
h00kOvenWerks: some of them, I'm browsing them now actually02:04
h00kOvenWerks: I notice that I have browser audio working, and as soon as I start jack from ubuntu studio controls, I lose browser audio and it will not return until I quit jack02:05
h00ksimilar from qjackctl02:08
h00kbut starting it from Ardour keeps it. Okay. Lesson learned.02:10
h00kSo, definitely I lose all audio once I start jack with ubuntu studio controls with default settings02:25
h00kis there a way to reset ubuntu studio controls to all defaults?02:35
OvenWerksthat should not happen, default is to bridge pulse to jack and connect it to ssystem:playback_1 and 2 (the 1 and 2 can be changed)02:47
h00kI see that02:47
OvenWerksto reset to default rm ~/.config/autojack/autojackrc02:47
h00kNo external USB devices plugged in, jack not running at all, any configuration I make, I cannot keep browser audio when i start jack with -studio-controls02:48
OvenWerkswhen you do start jack with controls, pulse can only use jack as it's output device02:49
OvenWerkswhich device are you using with jack?02:49
h00kwell, I've got a USB capture cord for a guitar/ukulele (current challenge) and eventually an electric drum kit via USB/midi02:50
OvenWerksmaybe try this (all one line) and paste the url it comes up with: cd /tmp && wget https://community.ardour.org/files/adevices.sh && bash ./adevices.sh |pastebinit02:50
OvenWerksdo this with jack running02:51
h00kvia which method -- studio controls, qtctl, or ardour itself02:51
h00kor does it not matter02:51
OvenWerkscontrols would be best02:51
h00kOvenWerks: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/s24dRMDWW8/02:52
OvenWerksthat is not with -controls.02:53
h00kindeed it was :[02:53
h00kwith it stopped: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/svRCMSfBfd/02:54
h00kjack started with ardour: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Sytc65QJzR/02:55
OvenWerksthe first one was not with jack started by ubuntustudio controls,02:56
OvenWerksso that is the same then02:57
OvenWerksthat is the way ardour starts jack02:57
h00kcheck it: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/bMpJhrBKvc/  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1x5njmFhGwQspGVbnLuRGcYl7APJTWKQ6/view?usp=sharing02:59
h00kIt really was02:59
OvenWerksnope, controls may be running but it would not start jack that way unless it is a diferent version than anything in thje lasy 10 years03:00
OvenWerkscontrols does not use jackd03:00
h00kI have no idea what you mean or what I am doing wrong03:01
OvenWerksso stop ardour which should stop jack03:01
h00kardour isn't running03:01
OvenWerksqjackctl?03:02
h00kqjackctl had it running.  sorry.03:03
OvenWerksI need to go for a bit03:03
h00kno problem03:03
h00kthanks anyway03:03
OvenWerksok03:04
OvenWerksi be back03:04
OvenWerksIt is almost like the file has been modified03:05
OvenWerks( usr/bin/autojack )03:05
h00kps aux | grep jack: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Y3PwsJ6ktM/03:05
h00kI can pastebin autojack but I don't know if that's helpful.03:06
OvenWerkssure, I look through quick03:07
h00khttps://paste.ubuntu.com/p/b6F2XJmVPH/03:07
h00k~./config/autojack/autojackrc looks basic: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/9n6KzRSNr6/03:08
OvenWerksautojack is correct, it should start jackdbus via jack_control03:09
h00kjack is *actually* killed (kill -9), although have no audio (browser)03:09
h00kI'm gonna bounce this thing. brb.03:10
h00kon login, jackd already running03:12
OvenWerksThat jack is not even the same settings as the -controls config. I thin k it is stuck somehow.03:12
h00kneat :[03:12
OvenWerksjackd or jackdbus?03:12
h00kboth03:12
OvenWerksdo you have cadence installed?03:13
h00kgrep jack: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/gFSWnpFr97/03:13
h00kyes (by default, ubuntu studio)03:13
h00kwait03:13
h00knope03:13
h00kno binary executable by that name in my paths03:13
h00kshould I have cadence installed?03:15
h00kthis was a fresh 20.04 install about a week or two ago, I haven't done much mucking03:16
OvenWerksls ~/.config/autostart/03:16
OvenWerksdoes that have anything in it?03:16
OvenWerksdon't install cadence03:16
h00kI have no .config/autostart03:17
h00kempty/doesn't exist03:17
h00kno folder03:17
OvenWerksempty is ok03:17
OvenWerksdid you try running jack as root?03:18
h00knope, never.03:19
OvenWerksgood03:19
h00kI know better ;)03:19
h00kyeah, on login, jackd starts, and I have zero audio03:19
OvenWerksis this ubuntustudio or ubuntu with ubuntustudio on top?03:19
h00kstudio proper03:20
OvenWerkssettings->session and startup03:21
OvenWerksthere is a application autostart tab03:21
h00kI see that03:21
h00kJust pulseaudio as far as anything audio in here03:22
OvenWerkshow about in the session tan03:23
h00khttps://imgur.com/iX9UhCa.png03:24
h00kxfwm4, settings, panel, thunar, xfdesktop, power manager, pulseaudio, kdeconnectd03:24
h00kadvanced has 'gnome services on startup' checked03:25
h00kKDE unchecked, remote apps unchecked03:25
OvenWerksin the general tab is Automatically save session on logout checked?03:25
h00kNo03:27
OvenWerksI don't know what is starting jackd03:27
OvenWerksdid you do a full reboot or just logout/in?03:28
h00kfull reboot03:29
h00klemme see if there's anything fishy in qjackctl03:29
OvenWerksThat commandline does not look like qjackctl either (to me)03:30
OvenWerksqjackctl specifies two devices normally03:31
h00k"save JACK audio sever config to" .jackdrc03:31
h00kthat's it03:31
h00kstandby.03:32
h00kremoved .jackdrc, rebooted, jackd did not start on login. Clean ~/.config/autojack/autojackrc by deleting, launch ubuntustudio-controls, and now it will *not* start jack.03:37
h00kwhere be the logs for that bad boy?03:37
OvenWerks they are ~/.log/03:39
OvenWerksthe file is autojack.log03:41
OvenWerksthe file in the jack subdir may say something too.03:41
h00kI'm seeing ERROR: JackServer::Open failed with -103:42
h00kin jackdbus.log03:42
h00khttps://paste.ubuntu.com/p/f5hXQhtTrh/03:42
OvenWerkshow about autojack.log03:45
OvenWerksit looks like some other application is using that device.03:45
h00kjack starting with ardour: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/CKgCTGspwR/03:46
OvenWerksYa, same command line03:47
OvenWerksI feel like I am missimg something.03:48
OvenWerkswhen controls starts jackdbus, it first tells pule not to see any alsa devices, then does a killall -9 jackd jackdbus... then starts to set up jackdbus.03:50
OvenWerks*pulse03:50
h00kI got jack running with us-controls. Method: Run ardour, let ardour start jack. Mess around for a bit, quit ardour.03:52
h00kJack quit. Tested browser audio: works. Fired up -studio-controls, started jack, it started, lost browser audio.03:53
OvenWerkswhat does  jack_lsp -c |pastebinit03:54
OvenWerksshow?03:54
h00khttps://paste.ubuntu.com/p/wPfRnztnqt/03:54
h00khttps://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Y3wXycm7ty/03:54
OvenWerksin pavucontrol applications03:56
h00kI can do a video tour, heh03:56
OvenWerkssorry in the Playback tab03:56
OvenWerksI guess we should see the output devices03:57
OvenWerksyou should see jacksink (pulse_out)03:57
h00khttps://imgur.com/DKltZ8J.png03:57
h00kcan confirm03:57
h00kyes03:57
h00kI do see that, and I see audio that *should* be playing but isn't03:57
h00khttps://imgur.com/F2QGKEm.png03:58
OvenWerksThat all looks right03:58
h00khttps://imgur.com/egiI0qr.png03:59
h00kI am baffled, it *looks* like it should be doing a thing.03:59
h00kcarla: https://imgur.com/w7HnWGe.png04:00
h00kshould I mess with "Extra Devices" in studio-controls?04:02
h00k"Connect other internal audio interfaces"04:02
OvenWerksprpobably not04:02
h00kmaybe pulseaudio is being a putz04:02
OvenWerkshdmi requires really large buffers04:02
h00kI do have 2 PCH devices04:03
h00khttps://imgur.com/NZ4WwF1.png04:03
OvenWerksso does killall -9 jackd actually kill jackd?04:03
h00kI did a kill -9 on the processid, and it killed it.04:04
OvenWerksmaybe try using -controls but setting buffer to 409604:04
* OvenWerks is runniing out of ideas04:05
h00kno change there04:05
OvenWerksdoes it still start jackd?04:05
h00kYep04:05
h00kI just tried 3 jack periods, neg.04:06
h00kneg meaning browser audio (and all other audio) dies when I start jack with -controls04:07
OvenWerksya.04:07
OvenWerksbecause jackd is getting started04:07
OvenWerksyour usb device has a headphone jack?04:07
h00kIt does not04:08
h00kI don't actually have it plugged in for "Testing" at the moment, i'm just trying to get any kind of audio when jack starts. Should I expect to still hear audio?04:08
h00kyoutube --> start jack --> continue youtube (y/n?)04:09
OvenWerksI am just wondering if we get rid of the jackdrc file (again)04:09
OvenWerksset the usb device as jack master.04:10
h00kgone04:10
OvenWerks(second dropdown)04:10
OvenWerksand then try adding PCH,0,0 as an extra device04:11
h00khttps://imgur.com/aAB9dWn.png04:11
OvenWerksthen use Carla to connect pulse-out to that04:11
OvenWerksso start jack?04:11
h00kjack started04:12
h00kI'm looking at carla to makesure I'm doing the right thing04:12
h00khttps://imgur.com/04eXG0K.png04:14
h00kHaven't touched it yet, just moved things to where they made sense04:14
OvenWerksYa, so reconnect pulse-out to PCH,0,0-out04:15
OvenWerksyou can leave the connections to system for now.04:15
h00knotta yet. both pulse outs to all pch,0,0-out playbacks04:16
OvenWerkslook at alsamixer, levels are up not muted?04:17
h00kdoesn't appear to be: https://imgur.com/2b0mem3.png04:21
OvenWerksstill no sound... I'm baffled04:22
h00kFirst time... I tried troubleshooting for a decent full day. Turns out I had a bard cord. had to find that out using garage band or something on a mac, just gave me static.04:23
h00kanyway, I know the cord works now, and I can get things decent in some other easy to use stuffs, but I'd prefer to use studio just... because I'm a sadist and I like the challenge.04:23
h00kand jack is a bastard yet for me.04:24
h00kOvenWerks: I appreciate the time. I'm not sure where to go. :[04:26
OvenWerksI'm not either at this point04:27
OvenWerksI have been using this basic setup for years on a number of different machines04:27
h00khttps://imgur.com/a/deB419z04:32
h00kthat's fairly logical04:32
OvenWerkswhen controls has jack running that should show no devices :)04:34
h00kcorrecto04:34
h00kcan confirm04:34
OvenWerksbut this way you have sound?04:34
h00kYep!04:34
h00kI get browser sound all day04:34
h00kyoutubes on how to not suck at ardour and stuff04:34
h00kso I mean, my actual hardware functions properly04:35
OvenWerksgood04:35
h00kI played with sample rate a bit, mostly only between 48 and  44104:36
h00kbecause 44100 will be good enough04:36
OvenWerkswhen the next version of controls comes out, it may be worth a try04:36
OvenWerksquite a lot has changed04:37
h00keven if I set jack master controls (no usb) I can select "pch 0,0 playback and capture analog"04:37
h00kYep, I'l definitely be checking out the alphas/betas04:37
h00kanyway, I just can't make 'er do.04:37
h00kThanks for trying with me anyway.04:37
OvenWerksyour welcome04:38
h00kI gotta switch back over to *the dark side* for a bit with music yet04:38
h00kI'm out for the eve. Catch you later.04:39
