F13+: Has anyone been able to get jackd to run with pulseaudio?

I searched everywhere on the Internet and found
lots of people complaining that PCM could not be
opened, thus terminating jackd.

Here is what I an getting from starting jackd via qjackctl:

$ jackd -d alsa
jackd 0.118.0

Memory locking is unlimited - this is dangerous. You should probably
alter the line:
     @audio   -  memlock    unlimited
in your /etc/limits.conf to read:
     @audio   -  memlock    1540245
JACK compiled with System V SHM support.

I have tried everything, including the kitchen sink and cannot
seem to get jackd running.
