I suggest a reboot and maybe be patient. I hazard a guess that Ardour
hangs while scanning soundcards early on.

There have been some similar reports for uses who have jack installed.
Ardour tries to discover soundcards, jack tries to auto-launch (and
fail), timeout for the auto-launch can be ~ 1minute in total.

Alternatively grab a debug-build from https://nightly.ardour.org/ (demo
is fine).  Start > All Apps -> Ardour -> Ardour GDB   will run it inside
a debugger and print message to a terminal.

HTH,
