I'm against the idea of autostart as well. In my experience anything that does
that is a recipe for unintended consequences.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
the debian maintainer of freewheeling suggested
that it should
autostart the server if it is not running (change JackNoStartServer to
JackNullOption)
i have my opinion; but i am interested in others
In my opinion jack should never start itself. I spend more time on irc
helping people "killall -9 jackd jackdbus" than just about anything else.
It is a slick idea but in practice it causes more trouble than it's worth.
Setting up jack to be my audio device (starts at session start) has been
the least trouble.
While advertized as help for newbys, in the end this is an advanced option
only useful for those who understand jackd well... default off makes the
most sense.
