Mplayer in Debian Lenny has JACK support compiled in. Easiest way to
find out on your distro is to try it:
mplayer -ao jack [media filename]
I use a FF extension called DownloadHelper. Simpler than finding and
renaming the Flash file. At YouTube, DownloadHelper also gives you
option of downloading other, higher quality formats they might offer,
such as MP4 (apparently often used for the HD version of a video).
Kaffeine offers an option to play through JACK. Settings -> Xine Engine
Parameters -> Audio, select jack from the dropdown button.
Standalone Xine can also play through JACK if you don't want to run a
GUI media player.

Second, probably stupidly basic and annoying
question; as soon as I
launch Jack, I lose all sound from the YouTube video I'm trying to
watch in Firefox. How does one get around that?
You can probably download the video (there are various scripts around
that'll do that for you, but usually the simplest way is to watch the
video in firefox and then rename the resulting /tmp/FlashXXXXXXX
file), and then play it in a jack-aware media player, such as mplayer.
Unfortunately, on some distributions, the jack capability is not
compiled in mplayer.
