The recording stoped working since I moved to 4.X. I just record
noise. I can boot into Windows and record sound but I prefer to
work in FreeBSD.

I cvsup with RELENG_4 (this is the correct tag for 4.X-STABLE, isn't
it?) and rebuild the kernel from time to time but the recording is
always broken. I can hear the sound during the recording and I can
playback other audio files but not the files I recorded to.

I get no error messages in any log files in "/var/log/".  I record
with "sox" that I have recompiled it several times. I use one of

  % rec foo.au
  % rec foo.wav

to test the recording.

So where do I go from here? Some debugging hints? Buy another card
that has good low noise recording and is better supported in FreeBSD?
I don't want to install Linux on a partition just to convert some old
music from some old tapes to digital media :-(

I'm thankful for any help you can give me,

kent
