Can you describe what you mean by qjackctl won't recognize the 
interface?  The interface is obviously running:

You have to connect the audio data from the appropriate channel on the 
interface to jltcdump.  You don't get any connections by default with 
jackd.
You should see something like system:capture_1 and system:capture_2 
ports, whichever one has the time code signal should be connected to the 
jltcdump port.
