I have an ancient laptop now running a debian flavour.  In my list of
mixers I have an Intel 82801DB-ICH4 Alsa Mixer, an analogue OSS one,
and a Pulse audio one, plus others.  

The only reason for having installed LMS on my laptop is to (try to)
use wavein to drive my Touch (for some websites that will only provide
sound via a browser).

I have used wavein successfully on a PC running Windows.

I installed LMS and waveinput, configured as 'wavin:0', or 'wavin:' or
'wavin:default'.  However, none of those work.  It stops after a few
seconds, as it did for thingswelostinthefire.

I have very limited knowledge of linux despite having been in the
computer business for over 35 years (much of it on obscure kit in
assembler).  So I can find and modify stuff when told how.  For
instance, I can see information in/proc/asounds, showing:

1:        : sequencer
2: [ 1- 0]: digital audio playback
3: [ 1- 0]: digital audio capture
4: [ 1]   : control
5: [ 0- 4]: digital audio playback
6: [ 0- 3]: digital audio capture
7: [ 0- 2]: digital audio capture
8: [ 0- 1]: digital audio capture
9: [ 0- 0]: digital audio playback
10: [ 0- 0]: digital audio capture
11: [ 0]   : control
33:      

But I don't know what to do with the information.  

/etc/asound.conf contains:

pcm.pulse {
type pulse
}
ctl.pulse {
type pulse
}
pcm.!default {
type pulse
}
ctl.!default {
type pulse
}

Again, I don't know what this means or whether it helps in setting
things up.

If I have to run lms as a user rather than a service, because of a
permissions issue, how would I do that?
