If I recall correctly, by default my upgrade did not include the
realtime kernel.  I had to apt-get that myself, and then when I
rebooted I could run jack with realtime.  See if that works for you.
You can see if you have the realtime kernel by doing this:

cdawson at djavan:~$ uname -r
2.6.22-14-rt

If you don't see rt, then you are not running realtime.
