FYI Jack Midi has less jitter than ALSA midi and is slightly faster as well iirc - Jack uses the ALSA drivers, if there are some, to mount your sound hardware. JACK enables many other features, but to simply run Reaper Linux you may never need it,except for midi for now.

One very nice feature about JACK/QJACKCTL is it can run in the tray and show when you have "xruns" - over or under runs (dropouts in other OS's) I had Rui (qjackctl dev) add some buttons to it years ago that give it a very small screen footprint but gives a fantastic system overview at a glance. Oh and Jack adds 0 latency.
