And here's what I just did to test locally. This is admittedly an
absolutely minimal unconfigured jack setup.

    $ sudo aptitude install -y --without-recommends jackd2
    $ jack_control start
    $ octave-cli
    >> devs = audiodevinfo;  ## no crash
    >> devs.output.Name
    ans = HDA Intel HDMI: 0 (hw:0,3) (ALSA)
    ans = HDA Intel HDMI: 1 (hw:0,7) (ALSA)
    ans = HDA Intel HDMI: 2 (hw:0,8) (ALSA)
    ans = HDA Intel HDMI: 3 (hw:0,9) (ALSA)
    ans = HDA Intel HDMI: 4 (hw:0,10) (ALSA)
    ans = hdmi (ALSA)
    ans = default (ALSA)
    ans = system (JACK Audio Connection Kit)

Seems to work for me.
