With the ALSA JACK plugin, I am forced to have JACK running, as mentioned
by Julien. Which is not so great for the times I don't have JACK
running (which ranges between 25%-75% of the time depending on what I'm
doing).

Is PulseAudio clever enough to realize when JACK is not running and route
the audio accordingly?

Cheers,
James.
