[ubuntu-studio-users] weird behaviour firewire

Thu Aug 13 18:29:16 UTC 2015

I already had jackdbus disabled in my search for a solution, was one of the
steps I took. And I filed a bug report, describing behavior with
pulseaudio-module-jack, and without it, in case I'm not alone with this
issue. In Ubuntu 14.10 this wasn't an issue either for me and I kept it in
place too. Luckily, using two sound cards, internal for regular audio, and
audiofire12 for real audio work goes just fine :-).

grtz,

Bart
