I noticed one time that starting qsynth didn't show up new jack
ports.IIRC, it was when I was changing lots of settings in qsynth, and
the engine had been restarted, oh about 20 times. But even restarting
qsynth didn't help.

I've never noticed it from the command line, but then I haven't
repeatedly started and stopped it.
