Oops.. just read the rest of your post.. obviously this was not the
problem.
Just to let you know, I have just had a few more problems with alsa/2.6.
Turns out that module unloading for USB devices is a bit flakey.. I have
to disable this on shutdown or I get a kernel panic when my usb keyboard
is switched on.
Good luck.

  Yep I have got Jack working with all versions of 2.6.x
 It runs as root no problem or with jackstart with capabilities patch
 applied as per jack FAQ.
 Just a silly question but you have got the volumes turned up on the
 mixer haven't you?

 I'd like to switch but am having no luck thus far.
 Q. If anyone has got jack to work great with a 2.6(.1) kernel could you
 share with me what version of the 2.6 kernel you used and what patches
 (if any)
 At the moment I'm trying a 2.6.1 with an mm4 patch but I'm getting no
 sound with my soundblaster live.
 I've done:
       <*> Sound card support
 and, under Advanced Linux Sound Architecture --->
       <*> Advanced Linux Sound Architecture
       <*> Sequencer support
       <*> OSS API emulation
       <*> OSS Mixer API
       <*> OSS PCM (digital audio) API
       <*> OSS Sequencer API
 rebooted and install alsa-lib-1.0.1 and alsa-utils-1.0.1 as well but I
 get these errors
 root@upstairs glenn # aplay /usr/kde/3.2/share/sounds/pop.wav
 ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:1055:(snd_pcm_hw_open) open /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p failed:
 No such file or directory
 aplay: main:502: audio open error: No such file or directory
 and
 glenn@upstairs glenn $ alsamixer
 No mixer elems found
 I'm at a loss but am interested at what type of kernel others are using.
 I think my next best bet is to remove alsa from the kernel and install
 it seperately.
 Thanks

  So you could do me a favour and edit

 Increase the TIMEOUT constant (line 76) and try if that changes your
 situation.
  
 that did the trick. thanks.
