The code uses a mutex_lock in the process callback:

    _lock(_this_);
    _this_->nframes = nframes;
    _unlock(_this_);


>From the doc of pthread_mutex_lock:  "If the mutex is already locked,
the calling thread blocks until the mutex becomes available."

A try-lock (pthread_mutex_trylock) may be less likely to disturb jacks
process flow.
