That's the "PulseAudio on top of JACK" solution. Probably the best solution
if you need both PA and JACK at the same time. But:
* not recommended (and AFAIK not fully supported) by upstream,
* needs some setup tweaks. Having to kill PulseAudio, start JACK and restart
PulseAudio manually at each session as described in those instructions is
not that great, more tweaking (to your session autostart stuff) is needed to
have this just work.
* adds extra latency to all the PulseAudio-using apps, which tend to be the
majority (but also those for which latency usually matters less; and some
stuff like Phonon or those MIDI sequencers is quite flexible so you can
output directly to JACK there).
* loses you some of the features of PulseAudio, e.g. the support for
multiple audio devices with automatic fallback to what's currently
available, per-app device preferences etc.
Still, yes, it's the best you can do if you need both PA and JACK
simultaneously.
