That's correct. My approach is to write scripts that restore
sessions.

Usually it's that simple, that just launching an app followed
by a path to the settings is needed.

You could also manage desktops with such a script, after launching an
app e.g. move the window to a workspace

wmctrl -r"JACK Audio Connection Kit" -t1

In what way are the MIDI ports mixed up?

I'm not using a session manager. Using scripts there's only one issue.
There's no way to give identical sound cards individual MIDI names.

$ amidi -l
Dir Device    Name
IO  hw:0,0    HDSPMx579bcc MIDI 1
IO  hw:1,0    TerraTec EWX24/96 MIDI
IO  hw:2,0    TerraTec EWX24/96 MIDI
IO  hw:3,0,0  nanoKONTROL MIDI 1
IO  hw:4,0,0  USB Device 0x170b:0x11 MIDI 1

Neither QjackCtl, nor aj-snapshot is able to distinguish the TerraTec
devices.

Is this the issue you experience? If so, then AFAIK there's nothing you
can do.

Regards,
Ralf
