Hmmm, running as the same user? See what you have in "mount", there
should be a tmpfs mount in /var/lib/jack/tmp. See what is in that
directory and erase everything there if necessary before restarting
jack. 

There were some posts on jackit about this (jack leaving stuff behind in
the temporary directory). 

(sorry about the urls: please erase "/mirrors" from them...)
