i get the error "Job for jacktrip.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status jacktrip.service" and "journalctl -xeu jacktrip.service" for details." when i ran the install.sh script. i changed the hostname to my IP. please advice
I'm at my wit's end with this setup. While the YouTube tutorials you provided were insightful, I'm still facing significant challenges.
Here's a breakdown of my situation:
I've set up a sound card on my PiKVM and another on my J1. I've connected the mic to the headphone jack and vice versa (following the color-coded example you provided with green & pink).
Initially, before plugging in any sound cards, I was able to listen to sound from my J1 PiKVM Web Interface from the HDMI cable. When I activated the sound card, the audio playback was routed through it instead of my HDMI. This meant I couldn't hear any playback from my PiKVM. However, I was able to transmit my voice from my Windows JackTrip Peer-to-Peer server to the PiKVM and then to the J1. But when I tried to adjust the settings to hear from the PiKVM web interface, I lost the ability to transmit my voice to the PiKVM and J1. It's like I can only have one or the other...
From what I can gather, the crux of the issue seems to be that PiKVM's Janus is using my sound card for audio playback. But when it does, it prevents jacktrip & jackd from starting since the hardware is already occupied by Janus.
Ideally, I'd like my HDMI to continue delivering audio playback from the J1 computer. But as soon as I plug in the sound cards, the HDMI audio output ceases. I still see the HDMI in my playback on my J1, but nothing goes to it. And if I default the HDMI still, even if I "test" the sound, the PiKVM doesn't hear anything from it.
I'm at a loss here. @Overemployed, when you set up your system, were you able to both receive playback and transmit through the mic using just the sound cards, without relying on HDMI?
For reference, my setup includes a PiKVM v4 Plus running Arch Linux PiKVM, while both the server and client operate on Windows.
Edit: Switched to using my Macbook instead of Windows, I plugged in and out my usb cards, and finally had a hw:1 instead of just hw:0.
Ensure jackd and jacktrip services are enabled and running using systemctl:
On the PiKVM,
bash
sudo systemctl enable jackd.service
sudo systemctl start jackd.service
sudo systemctl enable jacktrip.service
sudo systemctl start jacktrip.service
Start the JACK Daemon with the desired settings:
bash
jackd -d alsa -r 48000 -p 1024 -d hw:1,0
Connect to the JackTrip server on your MacBook:
bash
jacktrip -C [Server IP]
On your MacBook:
Open two terminal windows.
In the first terminal, start the JACK Daemon:
bash
jackd -d coreaudio -r 48000 -p 1024
In the second terminal, start the JackTrip server:
bash
jacktrip -S
Although it's working, I have to be really careful because it's using my integrated MacBook mic. There is no physical mute button which means I have to really make sure that I'm muted in chat. But so glad it worked. Was pulling my hair out for the last two-three days.
-- Edit 2 days in --
This is such a PITA. Every time I close the pikvm browser, I have to go and connect/disconnect the physical usb sound cards. And now the above scripts are even working in the sense that now when I run those scripts, audio from the HDMI isn't coming through and no microphone data is being transmitted.
After the last pikvm upgrade, I tried to upgrade the jacktrip package and it is broken with the rtaudio dependency.
I saw that the repository has the old version of jacktrip with the new rtaudio.
https://archlinuxarm.org/packages/armv7h/jacktrip
Anyone tried a workaround?
I'm getting the same issue. @josephum have you found a solution? I had to uninstall jacktrip to get sound back to my pikvm through HDMI, but now I can't use jacktrip.

Try to uninstall all the jack/jacktrip packages first:
pacman -Rscnd jack2 jacktrip njconnect jack-example-tools
Then go to package cache to rollback with the packages that worked before:
cd /var/cache/pacman/pkg/
pacman -U file:///rtaudio-5.2.0-2-armv7h.pkg.tar.xz
pacman -U file:///xdg-utils-1.1.3+45+g301a1a4-1-any.pkg.tar.xz
pacman -U file:///jacktrip-1:1.9.0-1-armv7h.pkg.tar.xz
pacman -U file:///jack2-1.9.22-1-armv7h.pkg.tar.xz
pacman -U file:///njconnect-1.6-3-armv7h.pkg.tar.xz
pacman -U file:///jack-example-tools-4-1-armv7h.pkg.tar.xz
Works here!

please what can i do if it a new installation.
i cannot downgrade because the old packages are not there so what can i do.
please i need an urgent resolution

Hey @Overemployed,
so I have a problem that I think you might be able to help me with and I would greatly appreciate if you can but pretty much I have a piKVM and I want to use the mic from my person local computer on my remote work computer. In the piKVM support chat I was informed about your Jacktrip running on piKVM and I wanted to know would your solution help me with this?
Hello I can help you do this.

Hey @anthonyolanre
Thank you, I'm using a piKVM v4 plus. Im not sure how to get started, so far I've ordered the usb sound cards and 3.5mm audio jack cables. Is this jacktrip the answer to my issue? btw you can also reach me on discord with the same username :)
i get the error "Job for jacktrip.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status jacktrip.service" and "journalctl -xeu jacktrip.service" for details." when i ran the install.sh script. i changed the hostname to my IP. please advice
I have the same issue too. How can I fix this error?
Thank you, that cleared the error. But, when run the jacktrip command it gives below error. any idea on how to fix it ? I made sure the variables are correct.

Thank you, this seemed to solve my issue!
Note: There was an issue installing the jacktrip package, so I had to dig into this archive you provided: http://tardis.tiny-vps.com/aarm/repos/2023/11/01/armv7h/extra/ and manually installed all the dependencies it needed before I could successfully install the older version of jacktrip. This process looked something like this:
1. Find a dependency that I'm missing:
wget http://tardis.tiny-vps.com/aarm/repos/2023/11/01/armv7h/extra/qt5-base-5.15.11+kde+r138-1-armv7h.pkg.tar.xz
2. Install dependency after the download is complete:
sudo pacman -U qt5-base-5.15.11+kde+r138-1-armv7h.pkg.tar.xz
This can look entirely different for you depending on the dependencies it's asking you to install. Once I've installed all the dependencies (even the dependencies that my jacktrip dependencies needed)... I then attempted to reinstall the jacktrip package.
Appreciate you, @josephum for providing that archive.
I hope this helps someone else as well.
I did all of the above, services are enable and I have a connection from peer, I can also connect the inputs and outputs through qjackctl on my macbook.
BUT, I had zero sound coming through, neither in nor output.
I finally figured it out: With my PiKVM v4 I needed to set the AUDIO_DEVICE setting in the jack.conf:
AUDIO_DEVICE=-d hw:1,0 to AUDIO_DEVICE=-d hw:0,0 <-- 0,0 instead 1,0
Thanks for the helpful tips. Updated the script.
