I've ran into similar troubles a couple of days ago with my Dell Inspiron 8000 running -current. I did a bit of research myself, and after pulling out about N hairs (where log2(N) >= 7) I found one workaround to this problem: As soon as you play something (I used `echo -n AA > /dev/dsp'), the recording should be back in shape.

The thing is, the spec available online (from ALSA) doesn't seem to explain programming interface of specific firmware images. I couldn't find any reference documentation for the GPL'ed firmware the FreeBSD driver uses.
