I'm trying to start jack with qjackctl. I'm thinking maybe there's something missing in my ALSA setup?
Code:

02:29:03.086 Patchbay deactivated.
02:29:03.113 Statistics reset.
JACK compiled with System V SHM support
02:29:03.159 MIDI connection graph change.
02:29:03.338 MIDI connection change.
02:29:03.541 MIDI connection change.
02:29:53.918 Startup script...
02:29:53.919 artsshell -q terminate
sound server terminated
02:29:54.459 Startup script terminated successfully.
02:29:54.459 JACK is starting...
02:29:54.459 /usr/bin/jackd -R -p64 -dalsa -dhw:0,0 -r44100 -p128 -n2 -P/dev/dsp -o2
02:29:54.484 JACK was started with PID=6009 (0x1779).

seems it doesn't like -P/dev/dsp

try something simple like
Code:
jackd -dalsa -R -r44100


maybe the output/playback device in qjackctl is set to /dev/dsp (OSS) instead of 'default' (ALSA)?

Here's your problem:

Code:
Unknown PCM /dev/dsp


You're trying to open a OSS device with an ALSA backend.

Use "hw:0" instead of "dev/dsp"
