[linux-audio-user] .asoundrc - merging two soundcards

i want to merge my two devices (analog and digital) to be able to use
them together in jack/qjackctl.
my card configuration is:
hw:1,0 -> 2 in, 8 out
hw:1,1 -> 8 in, 8 out
which is an asymmetrical "look".
so i created a /etc/asound.conf file (see below).
but when i start jack, it says:
ALSA: mmap-based access is not possible for the capture stream of this
audio interface
ALSA: cannot configure capture channel

this is because i used a null pcm with the asym plugin (i think).
anyone knows how to workaround this?

here is my asound.conf:

pcm.!default {
    type plug
    slave sl44100
}
ctl.!default {
    type hw
    card 1
}
pcm_slave.sl44100 {
    pcm "hw:1,0"
    channels 2
    rate 44100
}

pcm.Gina_Capture {
    type asym
    playback {
        pcm {
            type null
        }
    }
    capture {
        pcm {
            type hw
            card 1
            device 0
        }
    }
}
pcm.Gina_Playback {
    type asym
    playback {
        pcm {
            type hw
            card 1
            device 0
        }
    }
    capture {
        pcm {
            type null
        }
    }
}
pcm.Fostex_ADAT {
    type hw
    card 1
    device 1
}

pcm.multi {
    type multi

    slaves.a.channels 8
