That's the hint. Try removing the jack temporary files
from the filesystem /tmp/jack

Perhaps you've got OSS or artsd or something else
using the device--just guessing.

This can be done by enabling capabilities in your
kernel. I believe simple instructions are available in
the jackd faq on the website. The instructions are
there somewhere. The capabilities will enable normal
users to run jackd with -R realtime priority. jackd is
designed for pro audio so it's very strict about
having clients perform on time and if they don't
they're kicked.

You could try the jack dev list but the developers are
pretty busy and might not reply.
