Bug Description

When triggering jackd through qjackctl I encounter the following warning about a change to the configuration which I need to make. However, it appears to have tried to auto-detect my username and failed. Note the usermod invocation contains the username (null)

Executing the suggested command line would cause the error...
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('

Here is the relevant output from jackd.
