Without looking at Ardour or Rosegarden:
Configure Rosegarden to be the JACK transport Time
Master and Ardour to use JACK transport Syncronization
(not master). When properly configured, either will be
able to control the JACK Transport and cause the other
to follow suit.

If you're using MMC for transport control from a
hardware mixer then enable external MMC control in
Ardour. Use the qjackctl MIDI interface to route
incoming MMC to the Ardour "Seq" interface. If there's
more than one MIDI port specified in ardour.rc, delete
all but the "Seq" interface--"hw:0" or whatever.

In theory, any combonation of master and slave should
work but I'm not sure about the state of Ardour Time
Master and Rosegarden Sync to JACKD. The above
configuration has worked for me.
