This works just fine with jack1, too. dbus-tiggerd just launches
commands  or shell scripts. It's completely independent from jack's dbus
stuff.

Though in my case I'm using dbus-tiggerd to [launch a script to] send
dbus messages to jack2 for things such as backend switching..

Anyway if you just want to start it, a udev rule will do the trick as well.
