As Oon-Ee Ng mentions, it's a jack issue.

The most basic method which works for me, is creating ~/.asoundrc with
the following contents:

---8<----

pcm.!default {
    type plug
    slave { pcm "jack" }
}

pcm.jack {
    type jack
    playback_ports {
        0 alsa_pcm:playback_1
        1 alsa_pcm:playback_2
    }
    capture_ports {
        0 alsa_pcm:capture_1
        1 alsa_pcm:capture_2
    }
}

ctl.mixer0 {
    type hw
    card 0
}

---8<----

others might have other methods which might be better or not.
