Out of curiosity, what's the pros and cons of
using jackd as a system daemon?
The main disadvantage is that JACK uses a shared memory architecture.
There is no reasonable way to keep clients running for different users
from interfering with each other. A clever attacker could probably
even trick the root user into doing unsafe things.
This should almost certainly not be an installation default. If
someone wants to configure it that way, they should at least be
warned.
