Sorry about all the comments.

I think the problem is /dev/raw1394 is group disk, set in /etc/udev/rules.d/40-permissions.rules , which standard users aren't a member of.
If I add myself to the disk group and re-login, I don't have to run jackd as root anymore.

Bug description:
Firewire soundcards don't work with jack and latest dev iso (from 9 januar).

-running qjackctl with freebob driver (and basic settings) gives:
"Ieee1394Service::initialize: Could not get 1394 handle: Invalid argument
Is ieee1394 and raw1394 driver loaded?"

-running it with firewire driver is a non-go:
"firewire ERR: Error creating FFADO streaming device
cannot load driver module firewire"

-running qjackctl as root with freebob gives me an xrun every 2 seconds

I have the same issues running jackd from command-line.

My jack settings are basic:
/usr/bin/jackd -P 70 -R -P89 -dfreebob -dhw:0 -r44100 -p1024 -n3 -D

My soundcard is a Presonus Firebox which used to run fine on Leek And Potato (and Miso Soup) if jack and all depending audio apps were run as root.
