Hi Steve,

Probably a combination of bad luck, using (GUI?) utilities you
don't need, with a dash of conceptual confusion, IMO.

As others wrote, you don't need JACK unless you want to
connect multiple JACK-aware audio apps. JACK doesn't reduce
the latency inherent in the soundcard, or in the kernel.
It is specialized, different, not better or worse than
other audio services.

The Linux audio users list is the authoritative forum for
solving JACK-related issues. Steve, I don't see that you
ever posted to that list.

The short answer is that you don't need JACK at all.

Regards,

Joel
