Comments about JACK Audio Connection Kit as an Alternative to Virtual Audio Cable
While JACK Audio involves a more complex setup and needs the server to be started to work, it's functionally the same as it allows audio routing between applications. Routing can be done between any app providing an option to select the JACK Audio driver.
It does only support jack compatible applications, not virtual audio applications.
