Ubuntu Studio Controls is only a configuration tool and does not (yet) 
show the state Jack is in, but will as soon as we can add it to the 
backports (after we feel there is sufficient testing), then it will 
show Jack's state.

When in doubt, even if Jack isn't running, click "Stop Jack" in Ubuntu 
Studio Controls. This reverts the audio configuration to the default 
(PulseAudio running as main sound server). Then restart whatever 
applications you have that produce sound.

I hope this helps.
