I can say that I've definitely seen cases where if you configure a device as the "default" capture device in PulseAudio, then pulse will continue to capture from it even if you're not actively capturing the audio from pulse. I only spotted this because I had a USB analyzer on the device and was dumbfounded when the ISOC packets kept arriving even after I had closed VLC. Devin -- Devin J.
