[Bug 308002] [NEW] Prevent jack-applications from hanging when one of the connected applications crashes

[Moe]

Public bug reported:

Would it be possible for you to integrate some sort of exception
handling or security check into the flow of audio data in jack to
prevent jack-related applications from hanging when one of it's
(connected) applications is closed or crashes. For example if I connect
my mplayer to an equalizer app and the eq to the system speakers, i
cannot close the equalizer without mplayer hangs. Wouldn't it be nice if
jack simply reroutes the data to some null device until a new
application is conntected to it?

** Affects: jack-audio-connection-kit (Ubuntu)
