Ok, I noticed this effect on my other machine as well. Except I was trying
to run jackd with jack_control, so the problem is either with jackdbus or
dbus itself. However, as it is a ubuntu package I installed I should do
the bug report there first. I would think a dbus problem would show up in
any testing, so I would bet on it being a jackd problem.

I am finding ulatency less than obvious to set up. The man page gives
almost less than ulatencyd --help. It tells me how to override the default
config file but not where that should be. I did find it... but now to
change it in some meaningful way???
