hi paul,

thanks for responding - i'm not using any external sound card or 
interface. since i work only with prerecorded files, mixing, editing, 
manipulating, etc, i don't need any direct sound inputs or recording 
capabilities on the computer itself.  so i'm just importing wav files 
into ardour and working with those with no additional hardware.  and i'm 
now starting jack from Applications menu, not from a terminal command, 
although, like i mentioned, i didn't used to have to start it manually 
at all.

forgive me if that's not what your asking - i'm not so good under the 
hood...

patrick
