    Cool jack stops youtube , netflix and any video from playing

    Hi All
    After using Studio for over a year I now have a problem.

    If I start jack as I always due to control my FCA 1616 I cannot play you-tube or Netflix on FF or Chrome.
    (It just sits there with a white circle going round, then asks me to restart my device)

    If I stop or quit Jack I can play videos, But I get loads off popping and loud cracks from the system on every page.

    This has only just started happening.

    Last Update was a few nights ago, no idea what got updated.

    Any help cheers Bob


    Ok here is how I stopped this happening:

    Open QjackCtl "Setup" window, then click on the "Options" tab. Uncheck "Execute script after Shutdown: killall jackd". If you did not make this change, then QjackCtl would stop the JACK server from running every time the program quits. Since PulseAudio is still expecting to use JACK after that, you shouldn't do this any more.
    ****************
    I'll check a reboot
    No Idea how it got changed, must have been the last update.
