File jack-README.SuSE of Package jack
As mentioned in the Administration Guide, it is always a risk to run a program as administrator 'root'. However this is needed to run JACK with realtime priority and avoid dropouts. Realtime priority is activated with the -R option: jackd -R -d alsa -d hw:0 Here hw:0 is the first soundcard configured with ALSA. Further options for the ALSA interface of JACK can be listed by typing jackd -d alsa -h If you start alsaplayer in JACK mode with alsaplayer -o jack you can play audio CDs, MP3s and WAVs through JACK and add effects e.g. with AlsaModularSynth (start JACK mode with ams -j). The software soundfont-synthesizer fluidsynth can interface to JACK as well: fluidsynth -a jack -m alsa_seq gm.sf2 If you start jackd as user 'root', all JACK applications have to be started as 'root' as well.
