Thanks that was helpful.
The mixer seems werid though. I tested first with the alsamixer and the
only way I can get the line-in in to record is to put the "mix" channel
into capture mode. However, doing that mixes all the record sources
together so I get the orginal sound that is played through the output
on the "Wave" channel recorded as well. If I don't select the "mix"
channel for capture I still get the "wave" channel in the record but I
don't get the line-in channel anymore.
Thanks again for your help at least it set me in the right direction
for things to look for.
