One test that could be done is:
- install new jack version, reboot, remember which kernel modules are
there after trying to use it and failing:

  /sbin/lsmod|sort > modules-newjack.txt

- downgrade to old version, reboot, remember which ekrnel modules are
there after trying to use it successfully:

  /sbin/lsmod|sort > modules-oldjack.txt

- are there differences?

  diff -uNr modules-newjack.txt modules-oldjack.txt
