Hi everyone! I had already disabled the pulse service with the MX magic tool. I tried following this guide: https://linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php?t=23206
Pulse audio seems disabled. MPD cannot play DSD files, that means pulse is enabled. iceWM plays PCM files terribly, while XFCE plays better. It usually sounds much more realistic iceWM via MPD.
The active Jack/pulseaudio bridge service is visible from the CADENCE (kxstudio/jackd) panel. By disabling the (disable) button… pulsejackbrige reactivates itself.
In the last 23 years I removed all pulse packages with synaptic so iceWM has always been the workstation with the highest audio quality and works divine playback of DSD/DSF 64/128/256 (tested) 1bit depth files and WAV/AIFF PCM 32 floats (64-bit equivalent).
Advice?

You would get quicker and more accurate answers at MX Linux forum in their AVLinux subsection.
Philosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.
antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.

::thanks… admin! can you move the topic there?
No I can’t.
You’ll have to register there (if you haven’t already done so) and then make your post.
I’m sure you’ll get help very quickly over there.Philosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.

::so it’s better here… musicians and sound engineers make me nervous because they use their brain backwards and are therefore handicapped in grasping aesthetics. I prefer musically non-rational people, normal listeners.
I’ve been wanting to scrap xorg for 7 years already… maybe I’ll try again wyland.
On the other hand, AVLinux hasn’t worked for 10 years with my machine… that is, I used the 10-year-old installation up to a month ago. but then with the new releases the audio never worked again with professional HiFi DSPs. Only with HDSP technology from 25 years ago which is perhaps able to start working with this optical bus extension/separation as soon as we can design a low cost linear power supply… so “Dark Power”
