I've done a little googling on this but couldn't find anything.
(mostly because "jack" is ambiguous, and "KVM" can mean a lot of
things)
You can use netjack to make the connections or you might be able to wrap
the app with oss2jack or another similar program.
"can" but, have you done it?
I haven't used netjack yet but recently several people have reported
success with it on multiple machines on the jack-devel list.
If you can install jack and run it on the vm and you have a network
connection then netjack should work. The only possible issue I can think
of is if the network-bridge does not allow you to find the internal
ports of the host machine.
