[PlanetCCRMA] qjackctl not starting

[John Dey]

Fernando,

Everything you indicated worked.  I actually have 3 usb connections 
that show up in systems->administration->soundcard detection.  The one 
that does not show in cat /proc/asound/card is a midisport 2x2.  I had 
plugged it into usb port 0 and it became hw:0 not the onboard sound 
card.  It is interesting that the debug cat /proc/asound/cards showed 
the proper sound card as default but it seemed that when qjackctl input 
was set to default it didn't find the proper soundcard.  I changed the 
order of how I plugged the usb devices into the computer and reset the 
default and away I went.  Sorry to have bothered you.  I will keep your 
debugging steps around so that maybe next time I won't have to call for 
help.  Thanks again--great to know you are around.

John
