That remark is bullshit and shows that you really need to change the way 
you're thinking about problem solving.

Simplify the problem.
First, look at aplay -L to see if hw:VSL,0 is alive and well.
Now, start jack on the command line, starting with the paramters mixbux 
helpfully suggests:

jackd -t 200 -p 2048 -R -T -d alsa -n 2 -r 48000 -p 128 -d hw:VSL,0

It should fail in the same way you described above. If not, there is 
something fishy in the way mixbus starts jackd.

-n2 p128 looks like a pretty aggressive timing for a multichannel 
interface. Try -n3 for a start, and -p1024, then gradually lower the 
latency, but only if you really need it.
