The draining was introduced in ae3c8b19c6, apparently as an experiment
doing several changes. But the drain is outside the loop where
freewheeling changes, so the fix must have worked for other reasons.
There doesn't seem to be any benefit from draining at that point. The
stream is already empty. If not, we could have flushed it.
Draining right after uncorking will conceptualy create an intentional
underflow, even though it isn't reported as such. PipeWire seems to
(something like 6-12 months ago) have regressed in handling of that grey
area, causing that *underflow* to cause a request for too much data, and
thus causing constant *overflows* and unusable playback.
This change makes PulseAudio playback work for me again.
Querying available buffersizes and sample-rates requires access
to the device. Almost all ALSA devices are limited to
a single user-space application so we unconditionally try
to request access to the device.
jack1 (which is Linux only) does not have a jack_client_stop_thread
API, and expects the application to call pthread_join().
This fixes an issue when the application is compiled using jack2 headers
but the application later runs using jack1's library.
PBD::Transmitter is neither thread-safe nor rt-safe. This likely
fixes a crash on macOS when process-threads are started.
Many threads simultaneously enter coreaudio_process_thread() and
log a message calling `PBD::info << .. << endmsg` simultaneously.
In all years of using these assert()s never triggered. Besides
there are valid_port() tests in other strategic locations that
are not periodically hit in realtime context.

If connecting ports using the port-engine fails,
ardour forgets the connection.
Internal backends only produced an error if a port was already
connected, when using ::connect (handle, other), but
ignore already existing connection when using port-names.
Various ports are connected twice when the engine connects
at session load. This worked fine for as long as the engine
was never stopped (saving the session asks the port-engine),
but failed when the engine went away and internal representation
is used.
