I'm sure it used to be at the bottom of this page it had a note about
how going the ALSA Loopback route would stop you being able to change
settings from within QJackCtl, and just at the same point I read it
there was a thread on here by somebody not being able to set up Jack
through QJackCtl which at the time I assumed must be related. Can't see
any comment on it anywhere at all now though...

http://jackaudio.org/faq/routing_alsa.html

But obviously that would be unacceptable and why I never tried
re-routing ALSA.

Dale.
