it for sure isn't ALSA that wants jack, most likely an app requires
jack. You need to describe more precisely when and how you get the
message. Pops up a window, if you log in a user session? Do you start
an app and the app opens an error window?

Ok, here 'linux' seemingly is for the install as a whole, the kernel
and applications.

Do you reinstall 'linux' the kernel, or do you reinstall everything?

However, after reinstalling sound works for a while and after a while
it stops working?

For what purpose do you need sound? Do you want to hear sound made by a
desktop environment? If you open a browser, to listen to the sound of a
video? When running a virtual synth?

What window manager/desktop environment do you run? Unity, GNOME, KDE,
Xfce ...? What distro? Ubuntu, Suse, Debian ...?

Is jack installed? Yes? No? You don't know?

Regards,
Ralf
