The symptom sounds rather like the infamous old AMD64 non-monotonic
clock resulting from clocks not being properly synchronised across
cores. But I had thought that workarounds in the kernel, JACK, or
both had made this a non-issue for most systems installed in the last
couple of years. (I am quite sure that a workaround dedicated to
solving specifically this problem was merged to JACK trunk quite a
number of releases ago, and any contemporary JACK release will have
it.)
This page: http://www.sound-man.co.uk/linuxaudio/kernel.html refers to
the problem.
I realise I'm not offering any solution here, just pointing out that
your problem sounds the same as this one.
