This bug was about qjackctl blocking pulseaudio, not PA blocking jack.

There is in fact a bug in PA that makes it hard for jack to grab the audio  
device from PA.
There are different solutions:

1. have PA use another device, if you have multiple. Jack will always be  
able to grab
2. disable PA when starting jack, either by
  * using the tool pasuspender, like so: pasuspender -- sleep 30
  * turning of pulseaudio autospawn, and killing pulseaudio

This has been fixed in pulseaudio 3.0, so no need to report a new bug.  
Hopefully an SRU(stable release update) of the bugfix can find it's way to  
12.10 and 12.04 shortly.
