My first thought was a hardware issue with the original poster's specific unit. On my cheap little Behringer UCA-202, when I have it recording from the inputs (say an external hardware keyboard) while simultaneously sending sound through the outputs (say the computer-generated sounds I'm playing along with), the line in signal strength drops in half. Stop sending anything out the unit's outputs, signal back to normal. Or maybe something originating in a poor electrical ground somewhere in the wiring. If I connect my UCA-202 through a powered external hub, I get static. Disconnect the hub power supply, static is gone. I also have an old cheap Yamaha keyboard workstation. Simply turning it on introduces steady, low-level white noise. Sound and electricity can be a complicated mess. ;) -- David W.
