I continued a little bit testing with other audio software and had
Rosegarden4, Hydrogen running synchronized via jack transport. Tried
with several example projects using for example Hexter.
I recorded several tracks of audio in rosegarden and played back them
with no problems all of the above running together.
At least this leads to a thought that the xrun problem might be somehow
Ardour related.
