Hello,

When I switched to Pipewire for bookworm I learned that pipewire-jack
wasn't yet ready for general use due to broken sample rate
pass-through, as well as frequent Ardour hangs.  Thus I filed a bug
(#1054019), tested the proposed workaround, and Dylan Aïssi gave me
the ACK to document it.

After all, it's nice when release notes answer "Is $new_technology
ready to switch to, are there caveats, or do I need to wait for the
next Debian stable release" :)

I've prepared a draft in the following merge request, and I suspect it
needs edits before it's ready to merge:

Thank you,
Nicholas

Hi

If it's broken, instead of recommending bookworm-backports, can't we fix
it in a point release?

We discussed this bug at
https://lists.debian.org/debian-doc/2024/12/msg00001.html -
Have you considered fixing this in a bookworm point release rather
than only stable-backports?

If that isn't a solution, there are quite a few unanswered questions
at https://salsa.debian.org/ddp-team/release-notes/-/merge_requests/201

The merge request has new text from Nicholas. However one of the CI
step fails, I have no idea why.

Maybe someone else can carry this through?
