The "Execute script on Startup" field is used to run a command before
the JACK server is started (which may or may not be the same time
QjackCtl is started).
The meta-symbols can be used to pass parameters to the command. For
example, if "alsa" is your active QjackCtl preset, %P would be replaced
with "alsa" when the command is executed.
From your description it sounds like to don't need a startup script at
all, but what you really want is "qjackctl -p alsa".
