short question: Is this also the case, if I have three cards
but only one is used by jack?

I also get xruns with my USB card. It's the third card,
because I have an AC 97 and an USB2MIDI device.

When I try to run jack, it works, but I get some (but not too
much) xruns. Should I disable the AC 97 card?

 Thanks & best regards
