Bug#633815: jackd2: Confirmation, after suspend/sleep jackdbus consumes all available time

Package: jackd2
Version: 1.9.6~dfsg.1-2
Severity: normal

I can confirm this. I use jackd2 via qjackctl, and stopping the server via that GUI, and also stopping with 'jack_control stop', leaves 
jackdbus running. After waking up from suspend/hibernation, the jackdbus process consumes all available processor time and makes the 
computer extremely sluggish. This begins immediately after coming back, since recovery from hibernation takes ca. 15 minutes, and even 
wake-up from suspend takes minutes.

Perhaps getting rid of realtime properties would help, but that is the reason why I'm using jack in the first place on this relatively 
old computer of mine. There is no noticeable load on the system before suspend/hibernate, top shows around 1.4% of system time; after 
suspend/hibernate, all that is not consumed by important system processes are consumed by jackdbus, in my case around 85%.

Best,

Harri K.
