In my setup I connect the output of a bus to the input of the master bus. That can be problematic as we discussed. Although I use jackd I experienced silence when I inserted an AUX send (although I didn't activate it). Inserting seems to break connections.
So I tried to disconnect all buses' outputs to the master bus and inserted an AUX send to the master bus instead. That works and it saves one buffer of latency.
It works but is rather unintuitive. I am afraid that redesigning the buses to use an AUX send when doing an internal connection will break old sessions.
