Thanks for the response.
I assume you want me to record something with
arecord --device=hw:0,0
?
The problem still exists with that command line. Where do I need to look
next -- the kernel driver? Any theories as to what might be happening here?
Has anyone seen something similar before, perhaps on other hardware?
