I never understood this, so perhaps you can elaborate more. When I run
Mixxx with jackd running, it connects to the output device
automatically, so the user doesn't have to mess around with another
external application to make Mixxx work. The way PortAudio currently
behaves with JACK right now "just works" - The user will launch an
application, which will then be able to immediately playback audio.
Is the use case where the user wants to do more advanced routing that
begins with no connections really the most common case?
Thanks,
Albert
