Re: Running SuperColliderAU

I think .serverRunning is only a getter, which should reflect the state of
the server.

Instead, I think you need to call .startAliveThread on the server after
creating it (u = Server(... )).
Alternatively, there's a convenience method for this:
u = Server.remote(\scau, NetAddr("127.0.0.1", 9989));
Afterwards there's no need to call .startAliveThread
