Yes.  There is a race condition that prevents Ardour from exporting.
It was described by Robin Gareus.  It is a quite old bug though, but
Linux Mint 17 version of jackd has it.  So, I'm not really in the
'mood" of upgrading the OS to say, Mint 17.3.  The easiest way I see is
to, simply, compile from upstream.

On a related topic, eg. the impossibly to export, what would be the
cleanest way to grab the stereo output from Ardour to a file ?
