Output through JACK on Linux?

I'd like to be able to output sound clips using simpleaudio via JACK on a Raspberry Pi while another application is also producing sound output through JACK (using ALSA backend) - specifically FluidSynth. Is there an existing way to tell simpleaudio to do this? Here's my example code:
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import simpleaudio as sa
wave_obj = sa.WaveObject.from_wave_file("test.wav")
play_obj = wave_obj.play()
play_obj.wait_done()
The result is
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./test.py", line 6, in <module>
play_obj = wave_obj.play()
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/dist-packages/simpleaudio/shiny.py", line 20, in play
self.bytes_per_sample, self.sample_rate)
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/dist-packages/simpleaudio/shiny.py", line 61, in play_buffer
sample_rate)
_simpleaudio.SimpleaudioError: Error opening PCM device. -- CODE: -16 -- MSG: Device or resource busy
Which makes sense, since the sound card is being used by JACK - but is there a way to get simpleaudio to appear as a JACK client I can connect to the system outputs?
