In all fairness, I've found few softwares as difficult to install and

on various distros, I've succeeded zero times.

So I'd settle for Pulse (or ALSA or OSS) over Jack simply because I can
actually get those installed.


Jack is one of those interesting cases. That you could not get it to work indicates you don't need it. If you needed it then you'd figure it out. If you need Jack it's because any of the other 'sound systems' are useless to you. Real time (ie multi-track studio work) is one of those instances (actually it's the only one I can think of).

Interestingly, installing Jack for me on Debian systems was a matter of download, compile, install and run. No frustration required. Probably because the hardware and drivers I was using was the sort of stuff Jack was written for.
