Works just fine either way.

Jack stuff should show up in Qjackctl connections and then the user could 
connect to whatever input and output he/she chooses (just like most other 
jack apps).

It might be nice to have a little control window in Bristol to be able to 
dynamically connect rather than have to always do it on the command line but 
this is not necessary, especially if jack works and the connections show up!
