Okay, then I have to tell more about my system…

Unfortunately, I'm not using it on my own. My machine is also 
extensively used by my son and, surely, he is no friend of the command 
line. We use the wonderful Cadence to make everything just work after 
login (which includes watching youtube-videos via FIrefox and still 
getting the output over the highend soundcard and monitoring). So, 
Cadence is configured to start jack and deliver a pulseaudio bridge. And 
there must be the problem, cause everything works, as long as the Korg 
isn't plugged in at startup. Otherwise, I (or he) have (has) to launch 
jack via commandline. (I could tell him not to plug the Korg, until 
everythings up, but I thought t here could be something to do which 
makes the  problem just go away…)

Greets!
