hi

that is what I do:
#!/bin/bash
if ps xa | grep -v grep | grep "jackd " >/dev/null ; then
    if ! ps xa | grep -v grep | grep "qjackctl" >/dev/null ; then
      pidjackd=`pidof jackd`
      kill -TERM "$pidjackd"
      sleep 1
      qjackctl &>/dev/null &
      sleep 1
    fi
else
    if ps xa | grep -v grep | grep "qjackctl" >/dev/null ; then
      pidqjack=`pidof qjackctl`
      kill -TERM "$pidqjack"
      sleep 1
      qjackctl &>/dev/null &
      sleep 1
    else
      qjackctl &>/dev/null &
     sleep 1
   fi
fi
# this part check if jackd is start prop
cekz=0
cek=`pidof jackd`
while [ "$cek" = "" -a $cekz -lt 4 ]; do
  if [ "$cek" = "" ]; then
     cekz=`expr $cekz + 1`
    sleep 2
    cek=`pidof jackd`
  fi
done
# this part start applications if jackd run
if [ "$1" != "" -a $cekz -lt 5 ]; then
while [ "$1" != "" ]; do
      $1 &>/dev/null &
# sleep 5 # if apps start to fast uncoment this
      shift
done
fi

with this script I start all my Audio/Midi apps. I have add it to the
menuentry`s like that: /path/to/script rosegarden qsynth vkeybd
or
/path/to/script ardour qjacktuner
