/**
 * SECTION:element-jackaudiosink
 * @see_also: #GstBaseAudioSink, #GstRingBuffer
 *
 * A Sink that outputs data to Jack ports.
 * 
 * It will create N Jack ports named out_&lt;name&gt;_&lt;num&gt; where 
 * &lt;name&gt; is the element name and &lt;num&gt; is starting from 1.
 * Each port corresponds to a gstreamer channel.
 * 
 * The samplerate as exposed on the caps is always the same as the samplerate of
 * the jack server.
 * 
 * When the #GstJackAudioSink:connect property is set to auto, this element
 * will try to connect each output port to a random physical jack input pin. In
 * this mode, the sink will expose the number of physical channels on its pad
 * caps.
 * 
 * When the #GstJackAudioSink:connect property is set to none, the element will
 * accept any number of input channels and will create (but not connect) an
 * output port for each channel.
 * 
 * The element will generate an error when the Jack server is shut down when it
 * was PAUSED or PLAYING. This element does not support dynamic rate and buffer
 * size changes at runtime.
 * 
 * <refsect2>
 * <title>Example launch line</title>

 * gst-launch audiotestsrc ! jackaudiosink
