[Alsa-user] alsa capture gets stuck

[Paul H. <pho...@ho...>]

This works:

arecord -D plughw:1,0 -c 2 -r 48000 | aplay

I hear the audio generated from the capture device.

But, after I use vlc or any other program and try to use it again with 
the plughw1,0 it no longer works- I just hear silence.

I started with Ubuntu 12.04, compiled a new kernel, compiled new alsa, 
and still no luck.  I even tried
     alsa reload

I uploaded by config to:
http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=29266e5fda71c9d3feb4df7f72b24317d1df7395

thanks,
Paul
