Tips

To use jack without a soundcard, tweaking the -w parameter of dummy driver of jack can be useful. For example:

jackd -d dummy -r 44100 -P -p 2048 -w 20000

To have alsa output rerouted to jack, use the following .asoundrc:

pcm.jack
{
  type jack
  playback_ports
  {
    0 alsa_pcm:playback_1
    1 alsa_pcm:playback_2
  }
  capture_ports
  {
    0 alsa_pcm:capture_1
    1 alsa_pcm:capture_2
  }
}

pcm.!default {
        type plug
        slave { pcm "jack" }
}
