Public bug reported:
I'm running the JACK audio connection kit and I want to use it as the sound
server for my entire system as I have a firewire sound card that
alsa/pulseaudio does not support. I've done this before under Kubuntu Karmic
without problems - the Xine phonon backend detects the presence of the JACK
server and permits me to select it as the output.
However under Onieric the GStreamer backend doesn't give me the option to use
JACK at all so I can't get KDE to send any sound out of my sound card. Since it
worked in Karmic this is a functional regression. It makes Kubuntu all but
useless for serious audio work.
(I tried the alternative setup of using the pulseaudio JACK sink to route the
sound, but it crashes every couple of minutes so it's no use at all. This has
always been the case with the pulseaudio jack sink, so I don't think anything
will change there)
PLEASE can the phonon Xine backend be reinstated until the GStreamer backend
works properly?
