This worked well for me btw. Step 1 successfully achieved - route
(most) software through jack - with snd-aloop alsa loop driver.

Next (but not right now) is a nice pulseaudio-like gui with per-app
auto-mixer-strip creation auto-jackd-routing. I still don't understand
why pulse could not have just been some extra software working with
jackd. I guess I'll have to get back to programming at some point. My
first step would probably be a proof-of-concept in Java, since that's
what I have some experience in. Anyway, all postulation for now...

Thanks all,
