Better Jack audio compatibility

I'm still new to Linux audio, but I hope Jack will work better with SDL/PulseAudio better in the future.

For instance, I had to edit two files to get Schism Tracker which is normally SDL, to use PulseAudio while Jack was running.

I added these lines to /etc/asound.conf

Code:

pcm.!default {
    type pulse
}
## Not mandatory
ctl!default {
    type pulse
}

I also had to add these lines to /etc/pulse/default.pa

Code:

load-module module-jack-sink channels=2 channel_map=front-left,front-right
set-default-sink jack_out
set-default-source jack_in

And I installed nearly everything about PulseAudio and Jack through yum on Fedora 14 Updates-Testing. I spent a lot of time searching for a solution, and had to ask about it over at LinuxMusicians.
