Trying to get Ardour 7 working on a new machine, Debian 11, Pipewire. Getting a segfault, the salient part appears to be:
[E][000000190.598086][pipewire-jack.c:656 on_error()] jack-client 0x563bd83bd400: error id:6 seq:125 res:-17 (File exists): link-factory: can't link ports 83 and 87: File exists
Ardour works fine using Alsa. But using Alsa means I can’t talk to Midi plugins or use Carla, apparently. So what happens is, I start Ardour without any problems, then I switch to Jack and … bang. Setting PIPEWIRE_LATENCY
makes no difference.
Obviously this is something to do with Pipewire(?) but it only happens with Ardour. So I’m hoping someone here can shed some light on it.
Here’s the whole output from the command line:
