It is not in any of those dialogs.

If you previously ran Ardour with JACK, and JACK is already running when
you start Ardour, the Audio/MIDI setup dialog is not presented at startup
(because we assume that you've already configured JACK as you wish).

So, either:

    * stop JACK before starting Ardour, and then the Audio/MIDI setup
dialog will appear when you start Ardour
OR
    * Window > Audio/MIDI Setup ... to change the settings (but you
probably need to stop JACK anyway, since you likely want to use the same
audio interface)
