The AU Plugin creates the MIDI device and audio device on its own. So that's 
an important aspect to know about. Because when you create audio / MIDI 
devices manually i.e. with QSampler/Fantasia (i.e. before you can actually 
create a LinuxSampler track in Logic) then the sampler will directly access 
your CoreAudio hardware, and that's only what you want to do if you use the 
sampler as stand-alone application.

So please try the following:

1. Reboot your Mac (just to get a clear ground for resolving this for now).

2. Launch the LinuxSampler engine, which will launch a text-only window on 
   your Mac. Don't do any further setup at this point i.e. with QSampler/
   Fantasia or something.

3. Launch Logic and add your track with LinuxSampler as AU.

4. Launch your favorite LinuxSampler frontend app (QSampler/Fantasia).

5. The AU should now already have created the audio and MIDI device (special
   ones for AU usage) and the AU should also already have a created one 
   sampler part (or two if you added two tracks in Logic) . 

6. Now just edit the respective sampler part and load your gig instrument. 
   Make sure that a) "Giga" engine is selected and b) that for audio/MIDI 
   device the AU device is selected, not CoreAudio or CoreMIDI!
