[00:12] <wonko> Yeah, I just think the upgrade to 20.10 broke everything. Fresh install of 20.04 and the AudioFire shows up in pulseaudio. Which it didn't before. Haven't setup jack yet.
[01:16] <sirriffsalot_> Cool. Ubuntu Studio 20.04 up and running :)
[01:49] <wonko> OvenWerks: well, not sucessful, but at least I have a reasonable environment now to debug. :)
[01:50] <wonko> 20.04 + backports
[01:50] <wonko> carla is still giving me grief
[01:50] <OvenWerks> wonko what happens if Carla never gets started after a fresh boot?
[01:51] <wonko> what would I be looking at instead?
[01:51] <OvenWerks> so reboot, start jack, jack_lsp
[01:51] <wonko> Rebooting now
[01:55] <wonko> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/hhgFZRny54/
[02:26] <OvenWerks> perfect. Open qjackctl and got to settings make sure the two boxes "start jack audio server on application startup" and "stop jack audio server on application exit" are _NOT_ checked :)
[02:27] <OvenWerks> open the connections window and use that for making connections
[02:27] <OvenWerks> Note that after any jack restart, you will need to close and open qjackctl again.
[02:28] <OvenWerks> BTW jack_lsp -c will show connections as well.
[02:39] <wonko> Ok, so
[02:39] <wonko> Walked away
[02:39] <wonko> didn't start carla or qjackctl or anything
[02:39] <wonko> came back to system program problem detected (I get these at every start as well) and now jack is boned and I'm getting:
[02:39] <wonko> Error: cannot connect to JACK, jack_client_open() failed, status = 0x21
[02:39] <wonko> when I run jack_lsp
[02:56] <wonko> ok, back in ALSA mode and pulseaudio is being crap
[02:56] <wonko> actually, everything is being crap
[03:04] <sirriffsalot> wonko: ok?
[03:45] <OvenWerks> huh, I have been using 20.04 solid since before it came out. kubuntu with studio on top I think. Last week I ran the echo audiofire12 with faddo backend for about 5 days at 32/2 with one xrun (that one being within the first half hour)
[03:47] <OvenWerks> used firefox with many tabs, two instances of geany, built Ardour (cpus at 99%) and ran it
[04:06] <OvenWerks> wonko: have you tried using a higher latency as well?
[04:06] <OvenWerks> Is your fw card sharing an IRQ? If your FW card plugged into the slot that uses (heaven forbid)irq 16?
[04:13] <sirriffsalot> With Ubuntu Studio 20.04 I have to actually restart my sound card for jack to be able to send sound to it.. jack/pavucontrol says it's sending it there, but it isn't no matter what I do
[04:13] <sirriffsalot> Just restarting my card does the trick
[04:15] <OvenWerks> sirriffsalot: firewire? USB? restart how?
[04:22] <sirriffsalot> OvenWerks: USB. It's the TASCAM US-16x08
[04:23] <sirriffsalot> Power it off and on again
[04:23] <sirriffsalot> Never ever had to do that on 19.10, so, real odd..
[04:23] <OvenWerks> sounds kernelish
[04:24] <OvenWerks> or kernel module
[04:25] <OvenWerks> have youo tried the generic kernel or one of the non-distro kernels out there?
[04:26] <OvenWerks> (those ones we don't support ;)
[04:36] <sirriffsalot> OvenWerks: this is straight out of the box as it were...
[04:38] <sirriffsalot> Need to get some sleep now, but I'll just power it off when I shutdown for the night, which I should do anyways, and turn it on once ubuntustudio has logged in. If that solves it I won't complain :P
[13:34] <wonko> OvenWerks: Sorry, went to bed. :)
[13:34] <wonko> not IRQ 16, not shared
[13:56] <wonko> Other things to note. I'm running it in ALSA mode currently. With just the KA6 things work just fine. If I plug in the AF4 and restart my X session both the KA6 and AF4 show up in the pulseaudio drop down in the task bar after clicking on the speaker. In this state it is broken. If I try to play audio out of the KA6 (youtube for example) it just never starts playing. If I turn off the AF4 then try to play audio again it works fine.
[14:23] <sirriffsalot> OvenWerks: so I didn't have to restart the sound card this time
[14:23] <sirriffsalot> So far so good
