Currently it also has support for startup session (requires LADISH, which already included to LiveDVD). E.g., you may create some configuration, which should includes, besides other things, a2j, and use it on startup.

To be honest, and I do not mean to be disrespectful towards the creator
of KXStudio, I would not use KXStudio if you're looking for long-term
stability. I think even the creator of KXStudio would agree, he puts out
an unconventional (KDE, JACK as default sound daemon for all apps)
bleeding edge distro that doesn't really aim at being ultra stable.

Best,
