There is a tool named jack_wait which may help with that.  I do not have it on 
my machine currently and I have lost track of which repository carries that.
I am away from my machine most of this weekend, if you are not successful 
searaching for it perhaps I can try to find it later.

The pipewire server has optional JACK support.  If pipewire is providing  the 
JACK server then yes, when you start JACK aware applications they will find the 
Pipewire JACK server.
It will depend on how your distribution has configured pipewire, it may be as 
simple as removing a package named something like pipewire-jack.

It can.  The pipewire server is modular, so acting as a JACK server is 
optional, depending on whether the needed modules are installed or not.
