If I try to capture sound only using audacity - it does not record anything: audio recording progress bar stays at 00:00:00 and nothing is recorded.
And sometimes this message appears in dmesg:
[ 5663.100194] ALSA pcm_lib.c:1752: capture write error (DMA or IRQ trouble?)
When using tvtime there is no sound too.
I followed instructions on tvtime WIKI:

I would like to ask, if this is driver, firmware or ALSA issue? Maybe I need to extract firmware from OEM drivers but how can I do that? Maybe try other kernel/ALSA?
Or maybe this device is not supported yet?
Can anybody provide feedback on this issue?
Thank you
