Your "quad" device tries to use four channels, but your sound card does
not support four channels when capturing.

To have different configurations in the playback and capture directions,
use the asym plugin like this:

pcm.four_and_two {
        type asym
        playback.pcm quad
        capture.pcm  "hw:0"
}
