[PlanetCCRMA] cannot write to jackstart sync pipe 4 (Bad file descriptor)

Bernie (or anyone)

I saw this problem posted to the list in Sept... but don't see a resolution.\

Now I am having the same problem.

For the last few weeks I've been running jack/hydrogen/ardour just fine
with my integrated sound card.  I decided to plug in my SB Live, but
now when I try to start qjackctl I get:

====================

==============================

I am not running anything else with jack before I try to start qjackctl.

And yes, I have the "Server Path" in qjackctl listed as "jackd" and
NOT as "jackstart".

As I said... it had all been working fine, until I put in the SB Live card,
so now I'm a bit confused.


Any help?

thanks.
