Strange.  In kernel 3.2, omap-mcbsp-dai.1 (McBSP1) is used for the 
codec.  But in the mainline it's omap-mcbsp-dai.2.

So the question is... how is the board wired?  And does your kernel 
match the board?

Looking at the source, it looks like hw:0,0 has no capture port.  Try 
adding the -P parameter to jackd.  Playback only.

Also, post the output of:

    $ cat /proc/asound/devices
