pd with jack backend.
pd is launching 1 more thread for each pd already running, due to:
(quote from http://jackaudio.org/api/types_8h.html)
JackNameNotUnique: The desired client name was not unique. With the
JackUseExactName option this situation is fatal. Otherwise, THE NAME WAS
MODIFIED by appending a dash and a two-digit number in the range "-01" to
"-99". The jack_get_client_name() function will return the exact string that
was used. If the specified client_name plus these extra characters would be too
long, the open fails instead.
I tried to keep the intended behavior but delegated renaming work to jack.
