[13:13] <BrianHechinger[m> Ugh, Ardour is being weird when I split it in carla. As soon as I split it all the connections disappear and connecting to other things stops working reliably. Sometimes it'll connect, other times not. Ardour 5.12 is what's installed.
[13:15] <BrianHechinger[m> Hmm, I think I'll take this chance to get 6.0
[13:17] <BrianHechinger[m> Well, that "solves" that problem
[13:17] <BrianHechinger[m> no need to split anymore.
[13:34] <BrianHechinger[m> but no audio. Hmmm. Well, I have work to do so I'll mess with that later.
[16:13] <JonyPooh> Hi, I'm running Ubuntu Studio 20.10 and using the KDE 5 Plasma desktop that it comes with. In Notifications; Application Settings, configure events, there is an option for Speech, but I can't seem to get it to work. Does anyone know anything about speech in Ubunutu Studio 20.10 / KDE 5 Plasma?
[16:28] <OvenWerks> JonyPooh: that would be a good question to ask in #kubuntu. There are more people there and more people likely to have played with that part of things
[16:28] <OvenWerks> JonyPooh: ubuntustudio is kubuntu with some tweaks and media production software preinstalled
[16:29] <JonyPooh> OvenWerks, thank you, I had actually wondered if that might be a good chan to ask in. Thanks.
[16:34] <OvenWerks> JonyPooh: one thing I should ask I guess, is if you have jack running when you tried speach
[16:34] <OvenWerks> if so try without jack running first.
[16:37] <JonyPooh> OvenWerks, i do have Jack working mostly. I do have to do pulseaudio kill the first time I boot up, because Jack likes to start at boot some reason, but I have it turned off. Everytime I boot up I end up pulseaudio kill, then i stop and start and stop jack, and everythings working :-)
[16:38] <JonyPooh> but, yeah, ive only tested this with jack off, but i have jack setup to start a pulseaudio output sink and tear it down when it stops
[16:47] <OvenWerks> studio-controls should do all that for you. If you use studio-controls to start jack, the next time you boot jack will run from boot. If you stop jack from studio-controls, jack will not start at boot
[16:47] <OvenWerks> JonyPooh: ^^
[16:48] <OvenWerks> JonyPooh: also, for pulse to work while jack is running, there must be a pulse-jack bridge running (controls does this by default)
[16:49] <OvenWerks> if that does not work make sure you have the latest studio-controls (enable the backport PPA in ubuntustudio-installer)
[16:49] <OvenWerks> (there have been some bugs in that area)
