[linux-audio-user] zombified jackd tascam us-122

Audio has never worked well with the us-122 on my box. When it does
work, the sound is clippy/choppy. This happens even before jack makes
any complaints.

I've tried every conceivable jack setting. Here's my latest
configuration, along with a log that ends zobmified.

Should I just give up and sell the damn us-122? (my PCI audio card
works fine...but is noisy; which is why I invested in the us-122)
