The problem:
I try to record some audio, using the usb-audio-interface Lexicon Omega.
This interface has 4 capture channels, but all efforts to get them
working/configured failed.
Here is the commandline wich is working (but only two capture-channels
!)
$ /usr/bin/jackd -T -ndefault -dalsa -r4800 -p256 -n3 H -D -d hw:Omega -i2

So, one could say the interface is broken, but i tested on an older system
(Ubuntustudio 16.04):

jackd is configure via qjackctl, no specification of channelcount (only
default-value:0 ).
Here's the output of jackd starting (finding 4 capture channels + 2
playback channels)

The attachment shows you there are 4 capture-channels.
The bug is described here by another person too:
https://linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=21380
My opinion is that somewhere in development of kernel alsa has lost it's
capability to configure more than 2 capture-channels.
I wonder why nobody else is complaining, maybe because it's an usb-device ?
If you need more information, please tell me which,
i will provide them.
best regards Harry
