Pulseaudio solves my problems. JACK didn't. You can claim that JACK did, that I'm lying, that I'm crazy, or whatever. You can claim that I'm a weev-level Nazi-troll bent on destroying all that is right with the Universe. (You seem to like doing that.) The fact remains: Pulseaudio allows me to control volume independently of application and play multiple audio sources at once, whereas JACK didn't give me either of those things.
- anonbanker 12y agoSo, yes, we should be taking your knowledge of PA/JACK/UNIX with a large grain of salt. Further, your reply is largely a strawman argument (when did I say you were lying or crazy? what's this about the Universe?), and a borderline ad-hominem. I feel this speaks for itself.
- cbd1984 12y agoNo, you shouldn't, because I'm your target audience: Techy but not interested in sound per se, which means I can do things to make it work but I am not going to undertake heroic measures to get JACK to do a fraction of what Pulseaudio does out of the box, for example. You're just biased against Pulseaudio. There's no other explanation for it. You can't accept that Pulseaudio is a better out-of-the-box experience, and that that matters.
