I hope this helps someone else as well.
I did all of the above, services are enable and I have a connection from peer, I can also connect the inputs and outputs through qjackctl on my macbook.
BUT, I had zero sound coming through, neither in nor output.
I finally figured it out: With my PiKVM v4 I needed to set the AUDIO_DEVICE setting in the jack.conf:
AUDIO_DEVICE=-d hw:1,0 to AUDIO_DEVICE=-d hw:0,0 <-- 0,0 instead 1,0

Thank you, this seemed to solve my issue!
Note: There was an issue installing the jacktrip package, so I had to dig into this archive you provided: http://tardis.tiny-vps.com/aarm/repos/2023/11/01/armv7h/extra/ and manually installed all the dependencies it needed before I could successfully install the older version of jacktrip. This process looked something like this:
1. Find a dependency that I'm missing:
wget http://tardis.tiny-vps.com/aarm/repos/2023/11/01/armv7h/extra/qt5-base-5.15.11+kde+r138-1-armv7h.pkg.tar.xz
2. Install dependency after the download is complete:
sudo pacman -U qt5-base-5.15.11+kde+r138-1-armv7h.pkg.tar.xz
This can look entirely different for you depending on the dependencies it's asking you to install. Once I've installed all the dependencies (even the dependencies that my jacktrip dependencies needed)... I then attempted to reinstall the jacktrip package.
Appreciate you, @josephum for providing that archive.
