IOhannes,
I'm aware of the sequence of launching apps from OS X - I use Pd there with Jack and it works flawlessly. My mac is away for service, so I seriously needed to get started with Linux on another computer. This time I wanted to be very sure so I checked carefully - the moment Jack is selected as audio device in Pd it appears in Jack's connection panel. So I made sure that both in and out of Pd are connected to the 'system' and after that clicked in Pd on 'apply'. And it is working now :-) the sky is full of violins
cool that it works now. (it was probably as simple as not having DSP turned on while switching to jack)
I checked on using ALSA directly from Pd but it doesn't work - no feedback on the canvas and no output. This is like my audio hardware under OS X which also doesn't work directly from Pd. So I didn't really expect it.
weird. i've been using all varieties of rme hardware on Pd and usually i don't(!) use jack but plain alsa.
