Sorry, I misread. I think that because there is an indeterminite amount of
time between jack opening one device and zita-ajbridge opening the second,
the interrupts can not happen at the same time. In this case creating a
multi device and opening the whole thing as jack's master device would be
the only way. See http://jrigg.co.uk/linuxaudio/ice1712multi.html for an
example.
