Comment 2 for bug 1604207

Ah, that makes sense. Incidentally, the same issue is not present in other Portaudio apps, but that's because they don't keep persistent connections at all. So, Audacity and VLC (for example), connect to the system only when playing and then their JACK connection dies when you stop playing. There's definitely pros and cons to Mixxx's way of handling Portaudio.

In any case, native JACK integration is the correct approach. Looking forward to that. Thanks for your work!
