So far my poking around on the net indicates that dbus service between
pulse and jack are involved. (if you uncheck the start dbus in
qjackctrl only the firewire source/sinks show up).

The pulse source/sinks are provided by pulseaudio-module-jack.

What control over how things are named or created is still
unknown...to me at least.
