this is a known problem. alsa backend can be configured with a sr but 
jack (and portaudio, i think) don't.
so a general solution would imply leaving sr conversion to clam. or like 
ardour does, warn the user that should reconfigure jackd.

not strange. the current use of alsa is very adhoc, and probably using 
too small buffers.
i think we should rewrite AudioOut (blocking back end) upon portaudio.

good!
my advice is to prepare a prototyper demo also. and remember that you 
can copy-paste ports and controls ids to the designer.
in last demos, we constructed a tonal analysis app with two tonal 
widgets very very quickly.
