Given the ease-of-use as far as running chuck alongside other audio software, ChucK's PulseAudio build (make linux-pulse) is the recommended configuration for day-to-day use.
As far as Linux audio + Jack in general, Planet CCRMA is a layer over Fedora/CentOS that mostly replicates the Linux environment used at Stanford CCRMA (which is used for most of our audio heavy lifting, network streaming, ambisonics, wavefield, etc.). I can't comment specifically on using ChucK + Ardour in tandem but I would be surprised if it doesn't work well enough. Moreover, Jack is the preferred audio engine for CCRMA's Linux environment, so you shouldn't have to worry about that being a second class citizen.
