I'd like basic audio to play transparently (to a non-skilled user) over
a second pair of speakers. That way, other people can use my machine to
browse the web, and do all their usual things. They wouldn't have a
reason to moan about me not running Windows, and they wouldn't risk
damaging my monitors...
If you have an onboard card, just set that as card 0 and it will be used
by all sound-generating programs by default. You can then tell JACK to
use your RME cards.
