Hi again,
 
Some progress since yesterday; namely I have now got jack working and I can 
use the tool - providing that I sudo the launch script and pause anything else 
that is using the audio output at the time.
 
However, I still have the same problem if I try to launch it as myself.  The 
dialog box still says:
        Apologies, a critical error occurred during startup:
 
        Ruby could not be started, is it installed and in your PATH?
 
The details given in the dialog are now different; to save space in this 
message I've put the original, the latest and the output from diff in a folder 
on my website; see:

http://www.hadrian-way.co.uk/Misc/SonicPi_Errors_2.txt
http://www.hadrian-way.co.uk/Misc/SonicPi_Errors_Diff.txt 
 
BTW.  It doesn't show up in the Detailed Errors list, but I had to install 
IBus to get the application to work, even as root.  I'm not sure what that 
does in this context, but I assume that it's something to do with the editor.
 
BTW2.  I've also experimented with adding myself to some groups (audio, pulse, 
pulse-access), but that had no effect.
 
Any other ideas?
