Do the separate audio streams created by this process
ever get mixed together?

If so, is there a reason for the mixing to happen under
JACK, rather than within midi, where command line sequencer
such as midish can do the job?

So I had to loop over all open PIDs and kill them which produced xruns and jack hiccups, it also took long.
