Your problem probably is, that you are *not* recording from your digital input, but from the device called "default", which arecord uses by default. "default" corresponds to "plughw:0W unless you changed something in asoundrc (but you didn't do this). To record from digital-in you need to tell arecord about this. "arecord --help" gives the needed options, "arecord -L" shows the possible devices (but many more than you need) and "arecord -D NAME" selects a device called "NAME". Although I also have the Audiophile, I don't have any digital audio gear, so I never tried to record from that and thus I don't know the name of the digital ALSA device off-hand, but maybe someone else here does? BTW: OSS emulation on the Audiophile can be a bit tricky sometimes because of the chipset, so you should try to use ALSA wherever possible with this card. ciao -- Frank Barknecht _ ______footils.org__
