 my PPC Macs were the only systems where I used that stuff with some form
 of success. PulseAudio can work, but it can also introduce noticeable lag.
 (On Linux it typically runs under some form of realtime control.)

 Jack is/was broken on 32-bit archs due to a bug in upstream GCC, which led
 to ICE during compilation. It might have been fixed in the latest snapshot
 of GCC in fact. I will try building it (since I have just yesterday built
 my gcc-powerpc from the new snapshot of GCC 13).

 I have seen that error with `pulseaudio` on Sonoma by the way, with a
 different port. Do you know how to make in work on macOS/in Macports? It
 could be I just do not add needed environment settings or smth alike.
