Recording Vocals (left/right)

I am using Cakewalk ProAudio 9; I have a Mackie 1202 Mixer and using a SBLive Platinum soundcard. I have line out on the soundcard to the line in 5-6 on the mixer. I have ALT 3-4 in back of the mixer going into the line in/mic in on the live drive (front) of the soundcard. On the mixer the Low Cut, Mute (channel 1 and 2) buttons are pressed to record vocals. The source in cakewalk is set for left (track 1) and right (track 2). I have the first channel hard panned left and the second channel hard panned right. When both tracks are armed and I begin recording vocals the right channel is not being picked up by the software it seems. My vocalist on the left channel is doing the bulk of the singing and the second vocalist on the right channel is not singing as much more or less in a background kind of role. I hear the left channel clear and see the audio on both tracks in CWPA9. By me having both tracks armed this is why I am getting audio on both tracks or is there something that needs to be set? I tried changing the “y” cables to the line in/mic in the live drive – still the same results. Do I have something set wrong on the mixer or am I unable to record two separate tracks at the same time?
