[alsa-devel] [alsa-plugins-1.17] Regression in JACK plugin

[tet]

You're right, it was the new 50-jack.conf bundled in new version.
It just happened my local pcm was also named "jack"
which indeed conflicts with system 50-jack.conf and had to be updated.

Renaming local pcm statements to avoid conflicts with system ones solved it.
Cheers!

Tet.
