Yes.

If jack is stopped, none of the settings have any effect. Bridging can 
only happen if jack is running. If jack is stopped, none of the settings 
in ubuntustudio-controls have effect. Pulse is running using the system 
configuration. Bridging from pulse to jackd will still happen just because 
the bridge auto detect is there. In -controls that jackdetection module is 
removed so the bridge can be truned off.

Did you choose apply after (de)selecting them? (should the apply button be 
removed?) Remember that the pulse-jack bridge is enabled by default.
