I think what was wrong was not the inserts, but the plugin I used as a channel switch.
I say this because I have returned to pure Jack.
The motives:
· PipeWare makes everything work, whatever the cost. And the cost translates into desynchronizations between tracks and inaccuracies in time changes.
- Personal ethical and philosophical reasons. It's not that there is anything unethical about PipeWire, but it opens doors for unethical intentions to manifest.
So weighing the pros and cons I'm left with Jack.
He is finicky to set up in some situations, but he gives you total freedom.
Freedom implies knowledge and responsibility, because without knowledge there is dependence. Jack fits more with my way of thinking.
And surprise, in pure Jack the inserts work well for me.

I'll give you the tutorial I created. It contains example sessions and I think they should work without problems for you.
