I think Matt makes an excellent point. The solution you're looking for
these days really
is pulseaudio, not Jack. pulseaudio handles multiple sound source
applications, can
route to multiple sound cards, and provides rudimentary metering so you can
see
what's going on. I have no experience using it on anything other than KDE
but these
days I feel it does a good job at what it's designed for.
