Hi All, As root, starting JACK1 0.124.1 on an almost totally vanilla 3.19.2-1-ARCH kernel fails. Output of kernel with JACK1 issue is pasted below[1]. The same system works fine with the 3.18.9-rt5-1-rt kernel.
Running "groups" tells me there is no group other than "root", so JACK seems to misinterpret that there is an audio group on the "broken" kernel. Any suggestions as to what's going on? Thanks, -Harry PS: I'm aware of the reasons to not run JACK as the root user or login as root for daily use.
