Nope.  The ALSA-Jack Plugin seems to not agree with it and it crashes

firefox anytime I go to a site with audio.  If I am lucky it crashes it

before outputting LOTS of LOUD audio into my monitors.

Don't know of one that would do what I _think_ you are looking for myself,

course that doesn't say much in the Linux world;)

That is going to be my next move in fact, I will be routing the internal

sound into the line ins on my RME, and using its mixer to route that to the

appropriate output for my DA.  Should work fine as long as you set the

onboard to the alsa default card, and specify in qjackctl to use the RME.
