Hello. I'm currently in dialogue with the developers of Jack
(audio/jackit) with a view to getting better Jack support on
FreeBSD. We've come up against an obstacle, however...


I have a poor man workaround for this:

http://people.freebsd.org/~ariff/ports/audio_jack/

Which problem is this solving?

Does FreeBSD support MACH threads now?

I don't know which problem this is solving, but FreeBSD provides the POSIX thread API.

There will be a major fixup for the sound driver with respect to
latency, and I'm taking jack issues into account as well. For other
applications, see http://people.freebsd.org/~ariff/ports/ .

Does JACK still use the OSS backend on FreeBSD?

FreeBSD only offers the OSS API. There is and most probably there will be no ALSA support (every time this is discussed the outcome was that ALSA is too linux specific and that the development effort spend to implement ALSA is better spend in improving our current stuff).

Bye,
Alexander.
