If you create a mono track, the default connection for the input is "In 1" ("system: capture_1" in jack terminology). If you create a stereo track, the default inputs are In1/In2 for each channel, so I suspect that you need a mono track with "In2" as the input (You can change this in the Mixer Window). AND decrease the level in alsamixer if it clips. The track fader doesn't control the input signal level. You have to adapt the signal before it reaches ardour (via hardware and/or alsamixer).
