Sounds like an impedance mismatch. I don't know what an M-Audio device is, but I simply go from Line Out on my tape deck to Line In on the computer sound card. You'll need a cable with RCA plugs on the tape deck end and a stereo headphone plug on the computer end. You probably can buy that, but anyone who can use a soldering iron can easily make it. I doubt very much if it has anything to do with the recording program you are using.
