Depending on how you set up your machine it could happen that the card
number of the USB speakers changes, aplay -l shows you. We can fix that
later, first let's test if the following works.

Run

killall -9 pulseaudio jackd; jackd -dalsa -dhw:<card number> -r48000 -p1024 -n2 -P
                                          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
IOW for the above aplay -l output run

killall -9 pulseaudio jackd; jackd -dalsa -dhw:1 -r48000 -p1024 -n2 -P
                                          ^^^^^^
AFAIK you could use "Speaker" too, try running

killall -9 pulseaudio jackd; jackd -dalsa -dhw:Speaker -r48000 -p1024 -n2 -P
                                          ^^^^^^^^^^^^
this should always work.

Assumed pulseaudio is installed and running, disable it. I don't know if
killall will do the job.

Some subscribers might recommend to use pulseaudio with jackd, but do
yourself a favour and drop pulseaudio.

Another issue is duplex mode. In the above tests jackd is set up for
playback only.
