Do you need both sound devices? If you only should need the EMU card, you could disable the on-board sound device, by the BIOS settings. Theoretically you could use both cards, there's a special bridge available, but I guess it wouldn't make sense. -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Stud

Wow. Thank you gentlemen, Ralf, Abe, Adam, Kaj. Just great. The SB Live card is OK. I can distinguish between it and the onboard Via chipset. And load Soundfonts into it. I will leave Pulse Audio as-is for now. :~$ cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [Live ]: EMU10K1 - SB Live! [CT4620]

My intention is not to increase performance. Pulse Audio was causing too many problems and interfering with my alsa apps. Now I can run mixxx and all other apps together, including Firefox, and all audio is working. On Mon, Jul 29, 2013 at 8:33 AM, Kaj Ailomaa wrote: > > > On Mon, Jul 29, 201

Jack is easy to configure. It is the Pulse audio that can be a real bad player in this. If you like you can install Teamviewer and share you screen where I can give you pointers on how to work with Jack and he audio settings. www.teamviewer.com - Make sure you get the teamviewer for Linux or Ubun

Hi, there are some information gathered and linked on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/HowTos and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/Resources . You could also log on to the IRC channel #ubuntustudio to ask questions. http://wiki.linuxaudio.org is also a good resource.
