I do see one alsa_pcm (with capture1, capture2, playback1, playback2)
but I see that one without the usb m-audio audiophile connected. I know
that one works as I played with recording from the on-board sound card
(intel8x0) when I was just getting started.

Since the USB card doesn't come with a mixer how do I select the
inputs/outputs of it rather than the onboard sound card? I assumed they
would show up in the connect window in qjackctl and I could pick from there.

Ok, so the sequencer seems to be working fine.
