Description Ralf Kleineisel 2008-02-28 19:48:00 UTC
Description of problem:
There is an error in /etc/alsa/pcm/jack.conf and
/usr/share/doc/alsa-plugins-jack-1.0.15/README-jack:

Both tell the user to add this to /etc/asound.conf:
pcm.jack {
        type jack
        playback_ports {
                0 alsa_pcm:playback_1
                1 alsa_pcm:playback_1
        }
        capture_ports {
                0 alsa_pcm:capture_1
                1 alsa_pcm:pcapture_1
        }
}

This is wrong. Correct would be:

pcm.jack {
        type jack
        playback_ports {
                0 alsa_pcm:playback_1
                1 alsa_pcm:playback_2
        }
        capture_ports {
                0 alsa_pcm:capture_1
                1 alsa_pcm:capture_2
        }
}

The version contained in the package connects both virtual alsa stereo channels
(0 and 1) to the same (left) channel of jack (playback_1).

Comment 5 Ralf Kleineisel 2008-03-22 08:50:18 UTC
alsa-plugins-1.0.15-3.fc8 has a correct /etc/alsa/pcm/jack.conf.

/usr/share/doc/alsa-plugins-jack-1.0.15/README-jack still has the old incorrect
version.

Comment 6 Eric Moret 2008-03-24 05:43:41 UTC
Please file this bug with upstream as the README-jack file is taken directly
from upstream. If the fix is working (functionality wise) for you (besides the
readme file) please mark it as good so it gets push to update for everybody.

Comment 7 Fedora Update System 2008-06-11 23:34:59 UTC
alsa-plugins-1.0.14-3.fc7 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
