This can be done without any specific support in LASH. You would only
need a JACK-settings LASH client that saves settings with the session
and then loads them again when it's restored. Of course, "loads them
again" would be non-trivial at present.
What's really needed to support this kind of operation is a more dynamic
jackd that can have settings changed arbitrarily and, where possible,
without damage to the client graph. The driver switching patch (from a
long time ago) was intended to be a movement in this direction.
