cat /proc/asound/cards

1 [DSP ]: H-DSP - Hammerfall DSP
RME Hammerfall DSP + Digiface at 0xfcff0000, irq 20

see the names in square brackets? use them to tell JACK what to use:
jackd -d alsa -d hw:DSP .....
then the discovery order doesn't matter anymore.
Man, I never knew that either! I've side-stepped the problem now by
switching to a Firewire interface for JACK, but before that, I'd tackled
it by explicitly numbering the cards at module load time through a file
in /etc/modprobe.d.
That solution actually worked well, and it was easy when I just had one
USB device (and a couple of PCI ones). I have four USB devices now, and
while it still works, the module options look a little ridiculous:
options snd-usb-audio index=3,4,5,6 vid=0x12e6,0x15ca,0x0471,0x0944
pid=0x0013,0x0101,0x0329,0x010f
