No zombies here, but I get xruns almost every time I switch instruments 
in yoshimi.
Of course that's not nearly as bad as zombified clients, but at least it 
indicates that something about yoshimi's realtime behaviour is still not 
quite right (although it behaves much better than zynaddsubfx).

What's your Jack client timeout (jackd -t, default is 500ms)? What 
happens if you increase it? What if you add -Z to your Jack command 
line?
