That wouldn't be surprising.  I should add for completeness that I am not
aware of anyone who has tested ffado with a dbus-enabled jackd.  So there
may be issues with that which we simply haven't been aware of until now. 
Having said that I can't see how the jackd dbus patches could upset ffado,
but you never know with software.

"-v 5" should have given quite a bit of information.  If it didn't it may be
due to your ffado not being compiled with the debug system enabled.  By
default the svn development version enables this by default.  The previous
messages from you suggested that you were using svn, which makes it all the
more puzzling as to why debug would be disabled for you.  I mention this in
case it rings any bells.

If debug is disabled, it can be enabled using the "ENABLE_DEBUG=1" option to
scons (or is it just "DEBUG=1" - I can't recall offhand but the help text
shown with "scons --help" will tell you).  Note that once this is done once
scons remembers it so you won't have to do it for each subsequent recompile.
