I got it to work sort of.

jackd -d oss -r 44100 will make it work for xmms-jack
plugin. But just about anything will send it
spiralling out of control. I tried the commercial oss
drivers and they were worse, even after I inlcuded (I
think) the commercial headers.

Updating to jack-0.100.0 didn't help either.

Using jackd -d dummy results in the same loss of
control.

This is the jack output:
could not handle external client request
cannot read request from client (0/2100/Resource
temporarily unavailable)

I'm giving up for now.
