keyboard shortcuts should be interesting but it's a call from your desktop environment i'm afraid, not this particular application (qjackctl)

you can take advantage of the d-bus interface if enabled; these are the methods:

  • start - start the jack server;
  • stop - stop it;
  • main - toggle main window visibility;
  • messages - toggle Messages window/tab visibility;
  • status - toggle Status window/tab visibility;
  • session - toggle Session window visibility;
  • connections - toggle Connections window visibility;
  • patchbay - toggle Patchbay window visibility;
  • rewind - Rewind transport ;
  • backward - Backward transport ;
  • play - Play transport;
  • pause - Pause transport;
  • forward - Forward transport;
  • setup - show Setup dialog;
  • about - show About box;
  • quit - yep, Quit;
  • preset label - load label preset

eg. stop the jack server:

dbus-send --system / org.rncbc.qjackctl.stop

eg. load PRESET:

dbus-send --system / org.rncbc.qjackctl.preset string:PRESET

hth.
cheers
