Mmh I don't follow. You're say it should work, no?

The problem here is the parsing of the inline 'pcm { .. }' with
@args and $NAME.. If i remove this part or simply do a separate
definition of pcm.jackraw instead of using it inline in pcm.jack it works.

But then the jack-ports are just named "alsa-jack_P*" or "(null)_P*" and
I don't see the client name(s).
