Try to use the following version from the source: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~neale/mixxx/neale/revision/3292 (download tarball and compile the software, it works well with this device). Turn off "Hercules dj_mod" driver.( ex:make rmmod or even remove) It doesn`t work or works with failure on 3.x.x linux kernels(kernel panic for example). The version I described doesn`t demand usage of this driver.(I tryed it a half year ago on Archlinux(linux ver. 3.2.x)).But I saw a guy who worked well with it using "hdjmod" driver on UbuntuStudio 12.xx, two monthes ago. It seems this problem is connected with some kerneles precompiled for some distros. Anyway try to compile the software from the source. If it doesn`t help, download the last stable tarball of the Kernel from: kernel.org, add support for "bulk" and "midi" positions(configuration section for .config file: USB_GADGET may be smth else) devices if it is absent, compile and install this kernel, reboot,run kernel compiled by you, DO NOT load hdj_mod driver, plug you E2 to your PC, run Mixxx and choose the device highlighted in preferences.
