You're mixing things up here. On the one hand you are telling darkice to
use the ALSA harsware directly (which, due to it's design is pretty much
all you can do AFAICT) but then you are expecting PA's preferences to in
some way help with this.

As I explained in a personal mail, if you want to let darkice totally
controll your sound input you should select a profile in pavucontrol for
that sound card that does not touch audio input at all so that PA does
not try and use it for input and you can use raw alsa for that in darkice.
