@Len, I could not reproduce it on my own system with Xfce installed, but
I can now reproduce it on Xubuntu daily CD.
According to D-Bus monitor, qjackctl doesn't even create a tray icon
before everything hangs.
Looking at the code, I suppose such behavior may be a result of this
call in src/qjackctl.cpp:
XGrabServer(m_pDisplay);
m_wOwner = m_pWidget->winId();
XSetSelectionOwner(m_pDisplay, m_aUnique, m_wOwner, CurrentTime);
In this code, m_pWidget is hidden so has no winId, and calling
XSetSelectionOwner with m_wOwner=0 may result in blocked X11 session.
(Because of bad design of X11, apps can do that… In Wayland this isn't
possible).
I very much recommend to not use X11 API directly in Qt applications,
and use what Qt provides instead.

Title:
Systray option does not work.
Status in Ubuntu Studio:
New
Status in qjackctl package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Setting Qjackctl to "Enable system tray icon" does not display
Qjackctl's icon and the menu provided by qjackctl from systray is
blank. Further setting Qjackctl to "Start minimized to system tray"
makes the application unusable.
A reboot after Qjackctl to "Enable system tray icon" and "Start
minimized to system tray" are set, starting Qjackctl not only doesn't
show Qjackctl's icon, but the mouse stops working correctly:
The mouse moves ok, but does not have any hover effect or clicks so
the menu no longer works and the only way to kill qjackctl is with
control-alt-F1 (which does still work).
Qjackctl is the main application used for controlling Jackd or
jackdbus for those using any of the pro audio software.
