No worries, It looks like we're into new territory for you at least in
terms of documentation. Thanks.

I do use a USB soundcard (there is also a pci soundcard that I don't
use) and the machine finds, plays and receives sound through it. Can I
assume that it is configured for alsa? I have installed Jack and tried
to start it with "jackd -d alsa -d hw:0" but that doesn't seem to work
as follows:

[root@mtswir104 leon]# jackd -d alsa -d hw:0
jackd 0.99.0

configuring for 48000Hz, period = 1024 frames, buffer = 2 periods
Couldn't open hw:0 for 32bit samples trying 24bit instead
Couldn't open hw:0 for 24bit samples trying 16bit instead

Any thoughts?

Thanks
