I have an maudio quattro and the design is that output is little endian 
and input is big endian. Maybe that is affecting you too? There used to 
be a switch for this in jackd alsa flags. Seems to have disappeared now 
though.

A way to test this is to record a short test with arecord and set the 
input to big endian.
