 A full rewrite of the jack output code is beyond my capabilities, but
 here's what I've been playing with. These are presented as an rfc as in
 'request for comment' rather than a 'request for commit'.

 1) jack_audio_output_setting-0.1.patch

 Currently, the code attempts to use 'audio_main_device' as a mechanism for
 custom naming of the jack ports. It doesn't work. Consequently, the
 default audio output device setting of 'JACK:output' fails. To get jack
 working you have to set the audio ouput device to just 'JACK:'.

 2) bio2jack_update-0.1.patch.gz

 The bio2jack code used by myth is a few years old. Meanwhile there's been
 a few refinements to bio2jack, and myth might as well take advantage. This
 patch updates to bio2jack svn trunk rev 82 (2008-05-18) against mythtv svn
 trunk rev 17350. There may well be horrors in the bio2jack code
 unacceptable to mythtv. I'll cheerfully defer to review by wiser, younger
 eyes on that.
