Public bug reported: Normally Pulseaudio will release the alsa port Jackdbus requests, at least it did so in ubuntustudio 12.04. and jackdbus starts even if pulse is currently streaming audio. Once this has happened, both jackdbus and pulseaudio must be restarted before jackdbus starts normally. I use pulseaudio --kill and jack_control exit then jack_control start.
