Can't answer your original question, as I'm not at all familiar with
autojack.

As an alternive way of implementing this sort of thing, you could
have a look at zita-jacktools. It contains a player (with resampling
if necessary), mixer, equaliser, limiter, and some other tools.

All are a jack client and a Python class, so you can control them
easily from a python program. There would be no nead at all to
start new processes etc. for each track. 

Jacktools was originally meant to automate complex audio measurements,
but I see no reason why it couldn't do broadcast automation either.

And if you would need addional modules, just drop me a line...

Ciao,
