Hi, Looking through the guide there seems to be a step missing which would mean when the daemons are loaded on startup they will be loaded as root and then jack/pulse/some combination will load as your logged in user.
Jack only allows the same user to use it. The startup order is also crucial. Anyway try this in a terminal ps -C caed -C jackd -C pulseaudio -o user,group,cmd This should show you what users those three things are running as. Caed is part of Rivendell. If they're not the same try this: sudo killall caed ripcd rdcatchd Then in your app menu find JACK Control (or run qjackctl) It may already be running near the clock. Open it up and click Stop and then start. Judging by the scripts in the tutorial this should load Rivendell etc and be working. What you'll want to do after that (assuming the user problem) is disable the Rivendell start up script and remove the super user bit from the Rivendell daemons. Have a look at the disabling Rivendell section at the top of this page http://rivendell.tryphon.org/wiki/Debian_6_Configure_Rivendell_2.1.1_with_JACK Regards, Wayne On 24 May 2017 13:31, "Dave Englefield" <d...@daveenglefield.co.uk> wrote: > Hi > > > > I’m very new to working with Ubuntu and Rivendell.
