Not sure it's a sound card order problem. As you can see in the screenshot here (<a href="https://docs.google.com/open?id=0Bz9f9_VYwS1PeVdleVhvUUx5ZDg" target="_blank">https://docs.google.com/open?id=0Bz9f9_VYwS1PeVdleVhvUUx5ZDg</a>), Jack always "recognizes" the sound card and starts without problem. But no sound goes anywhere in the PreSonus card. - If I switch back to the internal Intel sound card, sound comes out of the built-in speakers. - If I pop in a Live Ubuntu Studio CD and boot from it, the PreSonus interface works just as expected, out of the box. - If I try the PreSonus interface on a Mac, it also works. Any other troubleshooting tips greatly appreciated... thanks!

Try lspci | grep audio to find soundcards. So when there are more then one card or even midi interfaces you must set a fixed card order. Possibly you can also try gladish instead of qjackctl.
