It seems it's related to the ICE1712... I now tried the Audiophile 2496. 
Same behaviour! There is no way to clock from external (S/PDIF). The 
'Multi Track Internal Clock Default' setting will always override the 
external clock rate and mess up the capturing.

I did tests on 2 very different systems: a) AMD with Xubuntu 12.10, b) 
Intel with Ubuntu 12.10.
