<br>
I'm going to assume you're running 24.04. If you're not, you should <br>
upgrade as soon as possible because PipeWire under 22.04 is not supported.<br>
<br>
With PipeWire, you shouldn't have to run a2jmidid at all anymore; it <br>
should all "just work". Gone are the times where you have to fiddle with <br>
the command line.<br>
<br>
As far as getting things to auto-connect, use RaySession and it will <br>
"automagically" make things re-connect as it somehow remembers MIDI <br>
connections for you. I'm not sure how, but it might remember the device <br>
MAC itself or something, but I'm purely speculating here. It's installed <br>
by default. Yes, it's a session manager, and it treats PipeWire <br>
connections as JACK connections.<br>
<br>
Give that a shot. Works for me and manages to reconnect my MIDI <br>
controller every time I power it off/on or even completely disconnect <br>
it. Even this morning, I started RaySession and Ardour and had <br>
everything disconnected. Connected everything, powered-on everything, <br>
and it all connected right where it was supposed to.<br>
<br>
Give it a shot!<br>
