Possibly the worst distro (version) for using JACK. There is a bug in
PulseAudio in this version of Ubuntu that makes it very hard to use JACK.

Upgrade, downgrade or prepare yourself for a lot of hassle.

this is a highly specialized use of JACK, and if you want to do this you
either need to know and understand a lot more about D-Bus or you need to
avoid using a version of jack with d-bus support builtin.
