Yes, just tested this and I can see that if someone sets Qjackctl to
start minimised on the systray, they will be stuck without Qjackctl.

It looks like reverting this commit (from Debian) should put us back to QT4 for Xenial.
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-multimedia/qjackctl.git/commit/?id=788b91e22ca4d0b770e66e34171d4e02a16f9697

QT4 will eventually disappear from Debian & then Ubuntu, but for the
Xenial Release it should be OK.

If we do drop back to QT4, we should make sure that there is a bug
submitted upstream to get it fixed with QT5 for the next release.

I am happy to try and fix this on the weekend, after we have Beta 1 out
of the way.

Title:
  Systray option does not work.

Status in qjackctl package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Setting Qjackctl to "Enable system tray icon" does not display
  Qjackctl's icon and the menu provided by qjackctl from systray is
  blank. Further setting Qjackctl to "Start minimized to system tray"
  makes the application unusable.

  A reboot after Qjackctl to "Enable system tray icon" and  "Start
  minimized to system tray" are set, starting Qjackctl not only doesn't
  show Qjackctl's icon, but the mouse stops working correctly:

  The mouse moves ok, but does not have any hover effect or clicks so
  the menu no longer works and the only way to kill qjackctl is with
  control-alt-F1 (which does still work).

  Qjackctl is the main application used for controlling Jackd or
  jackdbus for those using any of the pro audio software.
