I guess everything is fine with your setup but your mixer
isn't set properly.
* Your card has a monitor. Incoming signals are routed back to
the outputs immediately. This means that the incoming data
never left your soundcard towords your CPU!!!
* If you want to record (especially with JACK) you do not want
this kind of hardware monitor. So switch it off in ALSAmixer
* Now ensure that your recording environment catches the audio
input (this means unmuting and levelling the inports) and
process it the right way. If you're using JACK maybe you want
to use
meterbridge -n meterbridge -t dpm alsa_pcm:capture_1
alsa_pcm:capture_2
to monitor and level the incoming signal before recording it
with qarecord or ardour
