Hmmm, it seems "killall jackd; <custom command>" sometimes fails to execute
custom command. Not sure if killall jackd is leftover from a previous
version, but now that I've removed that part and just left my custom
command, everything seems to work ok (at least so far).

Do I still need killall jackd there?
