Actually, this is still wrong (as was my comment). JACK1 adds no
latency, and a very small amount of overhead. JACK2 run in its default
mode adds latency, and a very small amount of overhead. JACK2 run in
sync mode discards almost every benefit of using JACK2, adds no
latency and a very small amount of overhead.
I tend to forget this difference between JACK1 and JACK2.

 JACK does not add latency. It does add some overhead, Jack2 some more
 than Jack1, and especially on small ARM dev boards like the bananapi.
 This overhead could get in the way of achieving the lowest latency
 possible compared to using plain ALSA. So if you're using an ARM board
 to output sound from a single application you might be better off using
 plain ALSA.
