I had jack installed but removed it with the emerge -C option. I'm doing them one at a time and when I get to the libs it wants to do 0.9.8 also. I finally went to the media-libs/alsa-lib directory and did emerge ./alsa-lib-0.9.2.ebuild and it is going now. I would have thought the =alsa-lib-0.9.2 would have worked especially since it's not masked. If it still wants lib 0.9.8 I'll do an emerge -i to shut portage up.
