[PD] no audio in pd-vanilla UBUNTU 16.04

[José Rafael Subía Valdez]

Thank you IOhannes,

I run pd by typing "pd"
I have tried "pd -jack" and "pd -alsa"
but no luck

the media menu shows OSS and portaudio, no jack nor alsa and if I select
either, no devices are listed

I am going to try uninstalling every trace of pd and jack and try again.
