In the comercial windows world, FX-Teleport and VST System Link are doing
exactly this.
I think jack over ethernet could be as easy as writing a pseudo alsa driver
that emulates a soundcard but sends/receives UDP packets over ethernet.
I'm not that familiar with jack internals, but writing a new jack driver
(like the firewire one, and oss one) would be a much, much better idea
than writing some alsa-over-network monstrosity for too many reasons to
list.
