Re: [orca-list] Revamped explanation of problems relating to lack of speech accessability

[Alex Midence <alex midence gmail com>]

I wonder how Jack affects Orca these days.  I tried fooling with Jack once
back on Ubuntu 10.04 and each and every time I did it (It was when I was
trying Ardour out), it stopped talking.  It's like it just took over the
whole sound system of the machine.  I came to the conclusion that you
probably need 2 sound cards to run Jack, one for Orca's use and one for
Jack's but I don't know if this is a correct conclusion or not.

Well, my experience is the opposity, and I will insist it's not for lack of
trying.

At this point I'm no longer interested in system wide pulse. I currently
have 8 audio devices, and I explicitly don't want pulse anywhere near at
least 7 of them. I wish there were a simple way to disable/enable pulse on a
per audio card basis, but there doesn't seem to be such a thing.

I will add further that there's a wider community of Fedora users who won't
go near pulse. One group is the people doing professional music/audio work
on Linux. They use jack by and large, not pulse.
