The jack setup is pretty much a standard procedure for folks using audio
production software. ardour, hydrogen, muse, etc. they all need a jack to run
properly. 

During this setup, you will need to give certain permissions/priorities to your
user. Making these packages work out of the box means giving these
permissions/priorities globally to all users. I am not a jack maintainer, but
sometime in the past, they decided to not to do so. I assume that they had
valid reasons. This topic might be revisited too. But as I said, audio
production people are usually familiar with setting up jack. Also, after
setting up jack, one has to know how to use it. There are GUI applications such
as qjackctl which help with using jack. (I realized that this started going a
bit out of topic now. :))

Before you start frinika, it is good to have a running jack daemon. You can use
qjackctl for this purpose. Now when you start frinika, you will get a splash
screen. There is a "Setup" button on that screen. When you go to the setup, you
will want to select jjack (java jack) as your preferred backend. I advise for
not selecting/using pulseaudio in audio production software such as frinika.
pulseaudio is not designed for this purpose. But jack is.
