I am running Debian 2.2, kernel 2.2.17pre6 and a SoundBlaster Live using the Creative/Emu module.
2.2.17 release is out. Check the Changelog (via kernelnotes, whose URL escapes me) to see if there were changes to that.
Anyone want a recording of silence?
I had a similar problem when originally using an ALSA driver (from www.alsa-project.org) but the files were actually only the 44 byte WAV headers. How big are your files? Have you started a mixer and selected the microphone as the capture source? And the recording volume is up? Can you record from any other sources your card may have (eg line in)?
