1. You aren't running jack with realtime priorities and memory locking.
    Make sure you're in the audio group, have "@audio - rtprio 99" and
    "@audio - memlock unlimited" in /etc/security/limits.d/audio.conf and
    start jack with a "-P 70" flag prior to "-d alsa".

2. Built in Intel soundcards usually work better with 3 periods per buffer

3. Why are you using different soundcards for capture and playback?
