I am running the script by double clicking on it after making it executable and setting scripts to run this way via nautilus.  All the other scripts I wrote run fine this way. I tried running the script from the command line and that does work. So it is only not running correctly when activated by the mouse? Still a mystery.

How are you running that script?  Is it from a cron script or something
like it?  Does your script work when invoked from your command line?

I haven't paid attention to JACK, but I assume that each Linux user
session has some kind of jack context -- plumbing done by one user should
not affect the plumbing of another user.  I don't really see this issue
addressed in the first few jack documents I read.

My guess is that your script is modifying a different context from the one
you are observing.  That's really vague and hand-wavy, but that's the
direction I'd investigate.
