This is a recent regression which I was made aware of two days ago, and 
is tracked as https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jackd2/+bug/869420

It looks like people upstream are still investigating (see 
http://subversion.ffado.org/ticket/329 ).

If we like we could apply a temporary fix:

http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-multimedia/ffado.git;a=commitdiff;h=81093b54f072e1d25fba2a240b12795d3dc43feb;hp=aa8956884e15cf091cd53af7bf360501ab8b2cb0

It might leave a memory leak (?), but that's at least better than crashing.
