[PlanetCCRMA] permission problems with recent jack update 0.109.2

[Hector Centeno]

Thanks Fernando,

I'll try that. For now I would like to report that downgrading to the
previous version works and I can get Jack with Freebob running
normally. The strange thing is that right after downgrading I tried to
start Jack and got the same error as with 109.2 but after rebooting it
worked fine! I then reinstalled 109.2 and rebooted but it didn't work,
same error.

Hector
