This looks like the 2.6.26 MIDI sequencer problem

and after jackd has opened the sequencer device for the first time,
it'll hang trying to close it. Future attempts to open the sequencer

Ahhhhhhhh, I was never aware there was a midi issue...jackd could be
killed when I didn't use -X, excellent.
Thank you VERY much.
Now here's another situation. I've built alsa and jack. I installed
them into custom locations. In my users .asoundrc
I have a pcm device that calls the jack plugin. How would I get calls
to this plugin to use my custom built
/usr/local/alsa/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_jack.so instead of
the system one in /usr/lib/alsa-lib ?
Is this a way of allowing alsa apps to talk to jack? If so I would like
to have a go at setting it up but don't know where to start. Do I need
to compile my own libasound2, or the alsa kernel modules? (I've checked
and /usr/lib/alsa-lib doesn't include this plugin.) I'm running linux
mint, which is based on Ubuntu. I've googled for a definitive guide but
can't find one.
