The new qjackctl GUI only provides one button. It will be available for
the next release: http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/qjackctl
I have it installed for my Arch Linux.
[rocketmouse at archlinux ~]$ pacman -Q qjackctl
qjackctl 0.4.1-2
It's already possible to compile it for Wily and it works even with
Qt5 already, but the repositories still provide the old GUI.
[root at moonstudio ~]# lsb_release -rc;dpkg -l qjackctl|grep ii
Release: 15.10
Codename: wily
ii qjackctl 0.4.0-29-g45508a354d-1 amd64 JACK Audio Connection Kit Qt GUI Interface.
At the moment I only have access to the command line of my Ubuntu
install, since I run it in a systemd-nspawn containmer, so I don't know
if there is already just one button for 0.4.0, however, Xenial will
provide 0.4.1 too and most likely it can be compiled for Wily.
I dislike that "Most advanced Setup/Settings are moved into new
Setup/Advanced settings tab" [1], but seemingly the removed button
seems to be an advantage for newbies.

Anyway, I recommend to stay with the current version, since it now
works for you and building it for Wily might not be that easy for a
beginner.

Ralf
