If so this is expected. As I said in my reply, > I'd recommend NOT running jack at login.

Here's the general logic. 1. My default.pa uses module-udev-detect. 2. When I want Jack, I do the following (scripted) a. start jack b. load-module module-jack-sink/source 3. When I want to stop Jack, I do the following (scripted) a. find the module-jack-sink/source IDs b. unload-module them c. stop jack This is of course with jack2 (with the previously-mentioned dbus-based suspend of sound). If with jack1, you'd have to add logic to unload the alsa modules before starting jack and reloading them after stopping jack.
