How would I change it so that instead of connecting to the System outputs to the audio interface they connect to the input of the MU1? Or is there another way to get it in the permanent signal path between Jack's System outputs and the physical audio interface?

if you enable Hardware Monitoring in Jack, you should get monitor_*
ports. You can use them to read whatever is sent to the hardware
outputs.

hardware monitoring in JACK is not related to the presence of the monitor_* ports. The former is indicated by --hwmon or -H, the latter by --monitor or -m

In addition, almost nobody should ever enable hardware monitoring in JACK. It works on 2 kinds of (old) audio hardware, and is essentially useless anyway.
