I'm trying to record audio via a microphone, but I can't seem to get alsa to see the sound input.

I try something like 'arecord -d5 test.wav' and I only get:

$ od test.wav
0000000 044522 043106 116144 000000 040527 042526 066546 020164
0000020 000020 000000 000001 000001 017500 000000 017500 000000
0000040 000001 000010 060544 060564 116100 000000 100200 100200
0000060 100200 100200 100200 100200 100200 100200 100200 100200
*
0116140 100200 100200 100200 100200 100200 100200
0116154

I can hear the microphone input via the speakers so the mic is working.

The HW looks like:

$ arecord -L

$ arecord -l

I've tried the front and back mic jacks and have everything in alsamixer up to 100% and not muted. aplay works fine.

I tried arecord on another LFS system and it works OK.

Any ideas?
