Make JACK Work With PulseAudio
This script is intended to be invoked via QjackCtl to start up and shut down JACK on a system running PulseAudio. It handles the necessary setup to make the two work together, so PulseAudio clients get transparently routed through JACK while the latter is running, or if pulseaudio is suspend by pasuspender, do nothing
Usage: in QjackCtl’s Settings window, in the “Options” tab, enter the command
pajackconnect start &
in the field labelled “Execute script after Startup”, and put
pajackconnect stop &
in the field labelled “Execute script on Shutdown”.
pajackconnect reset &
in the field labelled “Execute script after Shutdown”.
for use jack without pulseaudio, add in Qjackctl setting window in the serverpath field 'pasuspender -- ' before 'jackd', save settings as "No Pulse" for example. Remove 'pasuspender -- ', and save settings as 'Pulse'. Now you can select from the Qjackctl setting window, if you would start jack with or without pulse.
To make it work after suspend, the file resume-fix-pulseaudio.service needs to be installed and enabled. If you use the debian package, the package installer handle that for you.
DEBIAN:
Build package with:
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us -b
On other distributions you need to first edit the file resume-fix-pulseaudio.service and replace USERNAME with your User name (logname) and USERID with your users ID (id -u $(logname))
after install you need to run (as root)
systemctl enable resume-fix-pulseaudio.service
systemctl daemon-reload
to enable the service.
