[01:45] OvenWerks: you don't happen to be around, do you? [01:46] half and half. [01:46] I'm futzin for a bit, anyway. [01:47] just waiting for my wife to get here [01:47] then we go to eat I think [01:52] OvenWerks: I'm pretty sure it's Ardour I need to learn to use [01:53] That is what i think too [02:03] h00k: have you seen these ones: https://community.ardour.org/community#videos [02:04] OvenWerks: some of them, I'm browsing them now actually [02:05] OvenWerks: 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 jack [02:08] similar from qjackctl [02:10] but starting it from Ardour keeps it. Okay. Lesson learned. [02:25] So, definitely I lose all audio once I start jack with ubuntu studio controls with default settings [02:35] is there a way to reset ubuntu studio controls to all defaults? [02:47] that 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] I see that [02:47] to reset to default rm ~/.config/autojack/autojackrc [02:48] No 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-controls [02:49] when you do start jack with controls, pulse can only use jack as it's output device [02:49] which device are you using with jack? [02:50] well, I've got a USB capture cord for a guitar/ukulele (current challenge) and eventually an electric drum kit via USB/midi [02:50] maybe 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 |pastebinit [02:51] do this with jack running [02:51] via which method -- studio controls, qtctl, or ardour itself [02:51] or does it not matter [02:51] controls would be best [02:52] OvenWerks: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/s24dRMDWW8/ [02:53] that is not with -controls. [02:53] indeed it was :[ [02:54] with it stopped: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/svRCMSfBfd/ [02:55] jack started with ardour: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Sytc65QJzR/ [02:56] the first one was not with jack started by ubuntustudio controls, [02:57] so that is the same then [02:57] that is the way ardour starts jack [02:59] check it: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/bMpJhrBKvc/ https://drive.google.com/file/d/1x5njmFhGwQspGVbnLuRGcYl7APJTWKQ6/view?usp=sharing [02:59] It really was [03:00] nope, controls may be running but it would not start jack that way unless it is a diferent version than anything in thje lasy 10 years [03:00] controls does not use jackd [03:01] I have no idea what you mean or what I am doing wrong [03:01] so stop ardour which should stop jack [03:01] ardour isn't running [03:02] qjackctl? [03:03] qjackctl had it running. sorry. [03:03] I need to go for a bit [03:03] no problem [03:03] thanks anyway [03:04] ok [03:04] i be back [03:05] It is almost like the file has been modified [03:05] ( usr/bin/autojack ) [03:05] ps aux | grep jack: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Y3PwsJ6ktM/ [03:06] I can pastebin autojack but I don't know if that's helpful. [03:07] sure, I look through quick [03:07] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/b6F2XJmVPH/ [03:08] ~./config/autojack/autojackrc looks basic: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/9n6KzRSNr6/ [03:09] autojack is correct, it should start jackdbus via jack_control [03:09] jack is *actually* killed (kill -9), although have no audio (browser) [03:10] I'm gonna bounce this thing. brb. [03:12] on login, jackd already running [03:12] That jack is not even the same settings as the -controls config. I thin k it is stuck somehow. [03:12] neat :[ [03:12] jackd or jackdbus? [03:12] both [03:13] do you have cadence installed? [03:13] grep jack: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/gFSWnpFr97/ [03:13] yes (by default, ubuntu studio) [03:13] wait [03:13] nope [03:13] no binary executable by that name in my paths [03:15] should I have cadence installed? [03:16] this was a fresh 20.04 install about a week or two ago, I haven't done much mucking [03:16] ls ~/.config/autostart/ [03:16] does that have anything in it? [03:16] don't install cadence [03:17] I have no .config/autostart [03:17] empty/doesn't exist [03:17] no folder [03:17] empty is ok [03:18] did you try running jack as root? [03:19] nope, never. [03:19] good [03:19] I know better ;) [03:19] yeah, on login, jackd starts, and I have zero audio [03:19] is this ubuntustudio or ubuntu with ubuntustudio on top? [03:20] studio proper [03:21] settings->session and startup [03:21] there is a application autostart tab [03:21] I see that [03:22] Just pulseaudio as far as anything audio in here [03:23] how about in the session tan [03:24] https://imgur.com/iX9UhCa.png [03:24] xfwm4, settings, panel, thunar, xfdesktop, power manager, pulseaudio, kdeconnectd [03:25] advanced has 'gnome services on startup' checked [03:25] KDE unchecked, remote apps unchecked [03:25] in the general tab is Automatically save session on logout checked? [03:27] No [03:27] I don't know what is starting jackd [03:28] did you do a full reboot or just logout/in? [03:29] full reboot [03:29] lemme see if there's anything fishy in qjackctl [03:30] That commandline does not look like qjackctl either (to me) [03:31] qjackctl specifies two devices normally [03:31] "save JACK audio sever config to" .jackdrc [03:31] that's it [03:32] standby. [03:37] removed .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] where be the logs for that bad boy? [03:39] they are ~/.log/ [03:41] the file is autojack.log [03:41] the file in the jack subdir may say something too. [03:42] I'm seeing ERROR: JackServer::Open failed with -1 [03:42] in jackdbus.log [03:42] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/f5hXQhtTrh/ [03:45] how about autojack.log [03:45] it looks like some other application is using that device. [03:46] jack starting with ardour: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/CKgCTGspwR/ [03:47] Ya, same command line [03:48] I feel like I am missimg something. [03:50] when 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] *pulse [03:52] I got jack running with us-controls. Method: Run ardour, let ardour start jack. Mess around for a bit, quit ardour. [03:53] Jack quit. Tested browser audio: works. Fired up -studio-controls, started jack, it started, lost browser audio. [03:54] what does jack_lsp -c |pastebinit [03:54] show? [03:54] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/wPfRnztnqt/ [03:54] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Y3wXycm7ty/ [03:56] in pavucontrol applications [03:56] I can do a video tour, heh [03:56] sorry in the Playback tab [03:57] I guess we should see the output devices [03:57] you should see jacksink (pulse_out) [03:57] https://imgur.com/DKltZ8J.png [03:57] can confirm [03:57] yes [03:57] I do see that, and I see audio that *should* be playing but isn't [03:58] https://imgur.com/F2QGKEm.png [03:58] That all looks right [03:59] https://imgur.com/egiI0qr.png [03:59] I am baffled, it *looks* like it should be doing a thing. [04:00] carla: https://imgur.com/w7HnWGe.png [04:02] should I mess with "Extra Devices" in studio-controls? [04:02] "Connect other internal audio interfaces" [04:02] prpobably not [04:02] maybe pulseaudio is being a putz [04:02] hdmi requires really large buffers [04:03] I do have 2 PCH devices [04:03] https://imgur.com/NZ4WwF1.png [04:03] so does killall -9 jackd actually kill jackd? [04:04] I did a kill -9 on the processid, and it killed it. [04:04] maybe try using -controls but setting buffer to 4096 [04:05] * OvenWerks is runniing out of ideas [04:05] no change there [04:05] does it still start jackd? [04:05] Yep [04:06] I just tried 3 jack periods, neg. [04:07] neg meaning browser audio (and all other audio) dies when I start jack with -controls [04:07] ya. [04:07] because jackd is getting started [04:07] your usb device has a headphone jack? [04:08] It does not [04:08] I 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? [04:09] youtube --> start jack --> continue youtube (y/n?) [04:09] I am just wondering if we get rid of the jackdrc file (again) [04:10] set the usb device as jack master. [04:10] gone [04:10] (second dropdown) [04:11] and then try adding PCH,0,0 as an extra device [04:11] https://imgur.com/aAB9dWn.png [04:11] then use Carla to connect pulse-out to that [04:11] so start jack? [04:12] jack started [04:12] I'm looking at carla to makesure I'm doing the right thing [04:14] https://imgur.com/04eXG0K.png [04:14] Haven't touched it yet, just moved things to where they made sense [04:15] Ya, so reconnect pulse-out to PCH,0,0-out [04:15] you can leave the connections to system for now. [04:16] notta yet. both pulse outs to all pch,0,0-out playbacks [04:17] look at alsamixer, levels are up not muted? [04:21] doesn't appear to be: https://imgur.com/2b0mem3.png [04:22] still no sound... I'm baffled [04:23] First 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] anyway, 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. [04:24] and jack is a bastard yet for me. [04:26] OvenWerks: I appreciate the time. I'm not sure where to go. :[ [04:27] I'm not either at this point [04:27] I have been using this basic setup for years on a number of different machines [04:32] https://imgur.com/a/deB419z [04:32] that's fairly logical [04:34] when controls has jack running that should show no devices :) [04:34] correcto [04:34] can confirm [04:34] but this way you have sound? [04:34] Yep! [04:34] I get browser sound all day [04:34] youtubes on how to not suck at ardour and stuff [04:35] so I mean, my actual hardware functions properly [04:35] good [04:36] I played with sample rate a bit, mostly only between 48 and 441 [04:36] because 44100 will be good enough [04:36] when the next version of controls comes out, it may be worth a try [04:37] quite a lot has changed [04:37] even if I set jack master controls (no usb) I can select "pch 0,0 playback and capture analog" [04:37] Yep, I'l definitely be checking out the alphas/betas [04:37] anyway, I just can't make 'er do. [04:37] Thanks for trying with me anyway. [04:38] your welcome [04:38] I gotta switch back over to *the dark side* for a bit with music yet [04:39] I'm out for the eve. Catch you later. [04:41] o/ [08:35] Hiya... === ctrlshiftPrhaps1 is now known as ctrlshiftPrhaps [14:30] I'ma try, for kicks, on a different laptop maybe later tonight === ctrlshiftPrhaps1 is now known as ctrlshiftPrhaps [21:10] jdl51: Studio uses Xfce which doesn't support wacom tablets.
