This particular line is sent to stderr, instead of stdout (which is what head would be reading from). I'd suggest the following:
jackd -v -d alsa -d hw:0 -p 512 1> jackstdout 2> jackerrout
Let it run for half a second, and then kill it with Ctrl-c. Both files (jackstdout and jackerrout) should contain more detailed information about what's going on.
