DId you configure you Raspi for GPIO6 to be an input?
You need a 'clear' signal - so a resistor between V++ , the GPIO and the switch and the other pole of the switch to GND. Your input is now permanently high and by using the switch you pull it to a low signal.
Don't use GPIO6 because it has special functions depending on the model and the firmware...
I'd suggest you check the signal flow outside of QLC+ to verify the hardware. Once confirmed, start QLC+ and set the input/output universe to use the GPIO.

Can you reproduce what you did to make it work for future reference?
