Jack is running with the dbus interface disabled. Rationale: I don't want any apps to control Jack, and dbus is not needed to become a Jack client.
A Jack client named Pipewire with capture and playback ports shows in the graph window of QJackCtl.
And jack_lsp is reporting:
PipeWire:playback_FL
PipeWire:playback_FR
PipeWire:playback_0
PipeWire:capture_FL
PipeWire:capture_FR
PipeWire:capture_0
Output of the pw-dump command have many related config variables (or states); maybe you can use this information to craft a config that would not require jackdbus, so I suggest to enable jackdbus in order to better investigate.
Looking at the source, jackdbus is used to manage a pipewire sink/source:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/blob/master/src/modules/module-jackdbus-detect.c
And also to inform the jack-tunnel module with parameters:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/blob/master/src/modules/module-jack-tunnel.c
It looks like the parameters can also be provided by the pipewire config.
