How to retask Audio Jack?

Hello there, first of all I love the new Lattepanda Alpha board as it does fulfill all of my needs - except one thing: I want to use the combo audio jack as a line-in only on Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS.

My goal is to connect a male to male (aux) cable from one device (e.g. headphone jack of another computer) to the lattepanda board and process the audio stream via nodejs. I searched everywhere but could not find a working solution. I tried to retask it via HDAJackRetask, but every combination I try does not work, at least no signal is coming through. Is it even possible to reconfigure it with HDAJackRetask to make it work that way? Is it even technically possible?

Any help is really appreciated.
