The USB connection is only for midi and data. So you're hooked up the right way.
Have fun with your Nord Lead 4!

Check this thread if you haven't already:

As maarthel said, audio is not sent over MIDI so you probably already have it set up the right way.

Isn't this largely meant for multi-timbral plugins, such FXpansion Geist plugin used as an example? Part of it of course still applies to hardware synths.

Yes it is, but I guess it will work for the Nord Lead also

Dont forget to make more then one output so you can generate more then one sound from your NL per time.
I set it up with two stereo outs into my card and then into Live.
