Yes, this machine is used to work with jack (jackd2), ardour, zynaddsubfx,
guitarix and rakarrack, and it runs with RT-extended kernel.

I have both libasound2-plugins and pulseaudio-module-jack installed.

If it's jack related problem, then probably it was caused by the fact, 
that jack server
was not started, when I used firefox.

However I think, that in this case I should get an error message (or 
even better error message box) urging me to start jackd - not just crash 
of the whole firefox application...
