Answer 1

mysql -h0 -P3306
There you are trying to connect to port 3306. Why?
You seem to have searchd listening on port 9306
listen = 9306:mysql41
... and yes, you will need searchd actually running. The 'service' may be called different things in differnet distributions.

Answer 2

Make sure the sphinx user has permission to this folder!
chown -R sphinx:sphinx /var/lib/sphinxsearch/
