Precisely the problem I had, the convulated workaround I got was to
enable another sound-card (besides my in-built) and then choose JACK
from the preferences. If I didn't have the other soundcard it would just
crash on choosing JACK.

Also, depending on how you installed it you may not have compiled in
JACK support?
