Thanks for asking back.

Note:
JacksEventQueue_put()
uses malloc() and also a blocking mutex.

This has to be modified to be lock-free (non-blocking).
But rather use a different, existing, verified data-structure.

jack_ringbuffer is a possible option, for IO to/from the callback.

But don't get lost. The topic is large... ;)

Your code looks very clean.
I like that you are using C.
