Codec/sound card input channels do not work simultaneously

Hi. I am a new Linux user that works on an embedded system (not a PC). I have codec/sound card that has 2 input channels and 2 output channels. And yes, I need all of them working at the same time. Here’s the issue: When I run a code, only one input is actually working.
Can I change settings on ALSA regarding how many inputs are working? Is 1 input a default set?
