I agree, it should use the default jack server name. Outside the list, 
Ralf mentioned that there's a bug in jconvolver that requires setting 
the server name regardless.

I use Cadence, too, but have no idea how to set the server name there.

qjackctl has an option to set server name. I've never set it and it 
shows "(default)". Could the parentheses be required as part of the name?

Could it also have to be "-s default" rather than "-sdefault"?

I noticed in the command line information you showed above, there was no 
-s setting. That's why I wondered if you'd tried it.

Just guessing, sorry if it doesn't help.
