There was a guide on the forums that worked for Feisty:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4795013

Unfortunately, I have not been able to set it up yet though, not even on
Gutsy nor Hardy - so I cannot help you directly...

If someone could help here it would be greatly appreciated!

JACK through PulseAudio for me is the ability to easily jam using a midi
keyboard between ordinary laptop work - if there is 20ms latency I
really don't care - as long as I can jam to Youtube-videos etc...

Cheers!
