[Bug 619752] Re: Ubuntu couldn output sound through the Presonus Firebox

 

Ffrom FFADO maintainer:

   Bug: No output from Presonus Firebox

   Suggestion:
       This appears to be a request to make the Firebox work with
       Pulseaudio as the OP didn't want to (or couldn't) use JACK.

       This bug could be marked as "will not fix" since it is unlikely that
       anyone will step up to make a FFADO pulseaudio module.  Such a module
       is technically possible (it would use libffado, just like the jack
       backend does).  However, the use cases for Firewire audio interfaces
       are mostly rather different to those of pulseaudio.  Users of these
       interfaces are extremely unlikely to use pulseaudio in their
       workflow.

       Another consideration is the emergence of pipewire and the
       uncertaintly about where it might settle within the Linux multimedia
       landscape.
