Same thing... All JACK does is basically move audio samples between
sound cards and applications. What that means is that every device
involved must produce/consume samples at the same rate.
The only way to overcome this is resampling, but for good reasons JACK
won't do that unless you ask for it (by using alsa_in or alsa_out).
