Summary0002210: [PATCH (kind of)] Audio Setup tab doesn't retain settings
DescriptionI'm running Ardour 2.4.1 under 64 Studio/x86-64 and each time that I start Ardour (without starting JACK or qjackctl first) I have to go to the Audio Settings tab and change the settings to what I want (FFADO, 192Khz, RT mode enabled) as they always revert to the standard defaults (ALSA, 48Khz, non-RT etc). I have noticed that my settings do seem to get saved to ~/.ardour2/ardour.rc but Ardour seems to ignore them.
Additional InformationI would very much like to see my Audio Setup defaults get saved and restored properly for each new session because I already prefer Ardour's track and bus inspector to qjackctl but if saving of the audio setup options worked properly I would have little or no need of qjackctl and then Ardour would be that much nearer to being a complete, one-stop DAW solution.
TagsNo tags attached.

AudioSetup loading has been explicitly disabled when the FFADO driver is selected, by the following two lines near the end of engine_dialog.cc:

        if ( prop && (prop->value() == "FFADO" ))
                continue;

The snapshot (r2953) which added these mumbled something about a temporary bypass of startup errors. I don't know what that was about, but I can see no reason why these lines should not be removed. It appears to work fine for me.

Hi asuffield!

Thanks for pointing that out but unfortunately I am unable to test it myself at the moment.

Has this fix not made it into 2.7.1 (or earlier/ later)? It was certainly one of my biggest niggles with using Ardour as I found it incredibly irritating having to set the Audio Setup options to the same values every time I started Ardour.

I can't test this, not using FFADO, but asuffield appears to have tested a patch.

change committed to svn, rev 5986. i'd like confirmation that it works from at least one other user if possible, although it certainly looks right.
