Hi list,
For many years I started pd on Linux from the console with its default audio settings from my then .pdrc defaulting to alsa with a simple pd
When I needed pd to use jack I would start pd -jack
Nowadays it seems that pd stores whatever audio API I am currently using whenever I change any aspect of its settings, eg. changing search paths.
This can lead to pd telling me that jack is not running. I have to check every time I modify any pd setting which audio API gets stored to .pdsettings and if that is my prefered default (alsa). Is there anything I can do to have a fixed default API regardless of other settings (a bash alias is not an option)?
Thanks for all ideas! Peter
