Thanks everyone, I adapted the script according to your suggestions.
Here is my version, which seems to work so far. Note that I reset jack
transport to 0 after stopping it. If you have any suggestions as to how
to improve it, please mention them. I am by no means an expert in bash
scripting. In fact, I pasionately hate that language.

#!/usr/bin/env bash
function jack_transport_status() {
jack_showtime | head -n1 & >/dev/null 2>&1
wait
}
if jack_transport_status | grep -q -i stopped
then
echo play | jack_transport >/dev/null 2>&1
else
echo stop | jack_transport >/dev/null 2>&1
echo locate 0 | jack_transport >/dev/null 2>&1
fi
Thanks everyone, I got my transport toggle
now! It's disturbingly hacky, but it works :)
Well, I showed you a comfortingly non-hacky solution. But if you want
to continue funling around with bash, it's your call. ;)
