Jack & PA work together fine under UbuntuStudio 12.04, using the jack plugin for PA. You can use Gnome or any other interface for it (I use xfce myself), they are independent of whatever desktop environment you use. Nothing is going to stop a user from killing either Jack or PA, though, as these are not typically run as root for a user session.
