Thanks Robin. It’s just good to know whether it is or isn’t worth chasing.
I don’t really want to mess about making this happen if it’s new territory. As a Linux-beginner I stand no chance of achieving what experts haven’t already achieved.
However, what you said here is interesting:

your music-player to use ALSA (or pulseaudio) on the built-in card?”
Why not indeed! Maybe that’s what my problem boils down to – KXStudio’s achievement of routing all audio through Jack2 is widely-celebrated, but perhaps it’s not suitable for a user of my particular requirements. I wonder whether it’s worth staying with KXStudio if I’m going to do as you suggest above (I’m also having problems with my Wacom graphics tablet) or whether there are other benefits of KXStudio that make it worth sticking by (it sure looks slick). Perhaps I should install Kubuntu, then add the realtime kernel, FFADO and those audio/graphics programs necessary for what I do. Opinions?
