| chris_uk[m] | Greetings. After recent update this week of US 20.04, Studio Controls is not launching either from the menu or terminal. This is what I see in terminal:...

| chris_uk[m] | Sound is working btw. | 09:52 |
| taeaad | tomreyn: Hmm, any idea how to do that on an old MacBook Pro? | 12:26 |
| tomreyn | taeaad: not specifically, no. normally, on laptops, the lense is part of the expandable cd tray, but i would not know whether or not that is so on a macbook. | 13:03 |
| tomreyn | looks like those don't have an expandable tray but use a slide-in mechanism? you will know. if it's the slide-in you'll need to do this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQqbvMeqrmU | 13:10 |
| tomreyn | if it's got a tray then it's really easy, though. | 13:10 |
| tomreyn | much better guide for the slidable drive https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1umIsplszt4 - but this is all about hardware - you may want to also seek help in ##hardware | 13:14 |
| Iamthehuman1 | Day #45 on US and still going strong. Thanks for the awesome distro. | 15:31 |
| Iamthehuman1 | I think I've noticed that if the "fallback" selection in PulseControl is something else than the target card I want for JACK when it starts the JACK will not output on the desired card. When I hear "fallback" in this kind of context it makes me think that "If another card is lost, fallback to this one". Maybe it is still in devel | 15:34 |
| Iamthehuman1 | I'll make more observations and get back on this one if I can figure out more clearly why sometimes there is no audio output when JACK is running. In PulseControl I can see the level meter bouncing, but zero physical sound output | 15:36 |
| Iamthehuman1 | Really nice distro... I was on Kubuntu from 2011 to 2020 and then KDE neon for 9 months till I finally took the leap of faith that I can use US even with the TB3-dock, easily dislodging connectors and everything | 15:38 |
| Eickmeyer | Iamthehuman1: When JACK is running, Pulse has to be "patched" to your output. Open Carla, go to the patchbay tab, and drag a "wire" from the pulse output to your speakers. | 17:20 |
| Iamthehuman1 | Ok thanks Eickmeyer. I'll pay attention if that is the problem, but I think they are connected automatically | 18:24 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Iamthehuman12: Not necessarily. Also, check that the hardware actually has volume up in qasmixer or alsamixer. | 18:26 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Iamthehuman1: Not necessarily. Also, check that the hardware actually has volume up in qasmixer or alsamixer. | 20:26 |
| Iamthehuman1 | thanks Eickmeister (did I spell that right?), alsamixer is definitely a useful thing to balance the "PulseAudio volume vs. the JACK audio volume"-ratio when used in conjunction with the multimedia volume up-and-down keys. | 21:56 |
| Iamthehuman1 | I live in an apartment building, so I kinda need to keep the kling-klang down a bit at nights | 21:57 |
