Oh dear... C needs to be called between A and B, but even if JACK and the
two clients know that A->C->B is the correct order (which none of them do)
it can't be achieved because A and B must be processed in a single callback.
This will 'work', AFAICS, but with one cycle delay. This sets me thinking
about using JACK for insertion points in a mixer. This will always introduce
extra delays...
