Removing the execution bit on the jackdbus binary (using chmod -x)
would not prevent D-bus from trying to start it, generating useless

Questions
- What is wrong with jackdbus ?
- How can I prevent it from starting ?
If you run qjackctl, it may start jackdbus. In fact anything that
tries to see if jackdbus is alive will start jackdbus. This does not
mean it is active.
The problem is with the debian (and so ubuntu) jack2 package that
installs both jackd and jackdbus. There should only be one or the
other on a system. I would suggest that:
sudo chmod -x /usr/bin/jackdbus
will fix your problem. Then, if you use qjackctl, unselect the Dbus
option on the last setup page.
Personally, I would use jackdbus instead if I am running dbus anyway.
On my systems I have chmod -x jackd instead. The best thing is to run
the one you feel most comfortable with.
