Bug Description

Binary package hint: jackd2

Ubuntu version: Mavrick Meerkat
Package version: 1.9.5

Expected result: Jackd to work fine with OSS4
Happened instead: Jackd won't run because driver is missing.

After switching my ubuntu maverick machine to OSS4, jackd won't run anymore with OSS. It seems that the OSS driver is missing in /var/lib/jack.

I tried rebuilding with debuild, but that didn't yield that driver.

OSSv4 seems like it would be a fairly small portion of the jackd2 Linux userbase. At least from the Ubuntu side, it makes sense not to compile or ship OSS support if said support has already been removed from the audio stack.

Would it be an adequate compromise to compile and ship only the OSS support in a separate binary package?
