I dunno. I never used pulseaudio.

fair enough.
Well there's two reasons for stopping JACK from time-to-time:
- save battery power when traveling and not listening to audio
- debugging some JACK apps.. where I need sound *and* gdb
(otherwise
`jackd -t 600000 -r -n debug -d dummy` and
JACK_DEFAULT_SERVER=debug gdb ...
does the trick)
In my case those events occur much more frequently than I wish to
re-start firefox and other non-jack apps :)
Anyway it's probably just me and I'm happy with snd_aloop.
