I haven't got this particular card, but there are sometimes a number of further steps to take. For example, with a Raspberry Pi2 I recently set up with an old Wolfson (Cirrus Logic) DAC card, I had to select that as an option, save, then click the card Control button to define the outputs I wanted from the card. Then, in the panel below, I had to choose the best output device entry. There were several to choose from, as I recall I tried a few before I hit on one that seemed optimal.
