Piping the output from the command
jackstart -R -d alsa -d hw -r 44100
to a text file produces the following (although I don't see the first
line nor anything from the second occurence of "jackd 0.71.1" onwards
when I launch it - I don't know why the text is getting repeated).
received signal 15 during shutdown (ignored)

I might have xawtv running, but no audio apps (and shutting xawtv down
doesn't have any effect). I always seem to get the problem - as I
mentioned, a couple of days ago I seemed to briefly be able to get it to
work, but I can't work out what I might have done differently. Rebooting
doesn't make any difference.
