I'm trying to record sound via my line-in input on my soundcard using arecord. The sound is clearly getting in there somehow, as it is being looped through to the line-out so I'm hearing it. But using arecord I just get silence.
I type:
arecord -f cd --file-type raw --device=default tmp.sig
to record the sound to a raw file, but it's just full of zeros.
I've also tried recording in audacity with no joy, just silence.
If I do "arecord -l" I get:
Code:
**** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices ****

In alsamixer line-in is selected, and I've un-muted both the line input and mic input (I've also tried with mic muted).
I'm running Ubuntu 7.10 with kernel 2.6.22-14-generic
Any ideas to unblock my PC's ears?
