I've not been able to reproduce this, but sounds fairly serious.

Has anyone else seen this?

Does the same happen with:

ecasound -i:file.wav -o:alsa,default

?

The source of the problem could be the change in global ecasoundrc file 
(defaults set in the binary versus the conf file). In theory 2.7.0 could 
be picking a different default on your setup, and that would lead to bad 
audio. Sounds a bit farfetched, but for now I couldn't think of any other 
explanation.

How about liboil support, did you enable it ('ldd /usr/bin/ecasound' 
should list liboil if support is enabled)? By default it's disabled.
