With Cadence, I see no patchbay or any other way to connect anything. On 
my Debian system, with QTJackCtl, Zynn shows up in the QJackCtl 
Connections window the moment I start it, I connect it, whether or not 
it's making any sound. Yoshimi works likewise. When I close Zynn, Jack 
stays running with no problems.

Maybe the problem is Cadence?
