I should have mentioned that this doesn't happen if I don't have the ecasound resample object in the chain, so I kind of figured that it might be some sort of caching issue or persistent buffering by the resample object. Maybe this is a (mis)feature of the interaction between the resample object and jackd. Thanks. IMHO, it doesn't really make sense that ecasound uses the jack transport API. It's a CLI program, and the interaction is incompletely implemented. All you can do is "pause" the playback, which terminates ecasound. You can't restart it. You can do this with Ctrl-C, too, with fewer keystrokes, and faster. -- Lindsay Haisley | "Fighting against human creativity is like FMP Computer Services | trying to eradicate dandelions" 512-259-1190 | http://www.fmp.com | -- Pamela Jones ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
