Your suggestion works like a charm. "du -m /dev/shm" shows 1 MB being used,
while "ls /dev/shm" shows two (not six) pulse files. Starting qjackctl
increases "du -m /dev/shm" to 64MB, which remain when qjackctl is killed. On
the other hand, I can restart qjackctl at least 5 times without problem
and without increasing the 64MB of memory. May I ask where you were digging
to come up with this?

Fons and Alexander,

This looks like a fairly clean solution without taking any drastic action
that might cause upgrade/dependency issues down the road.

Many thanks at all,

John
