I have just acquired a Terratec Aureon 7.1 Space sound card and I've been
seeing the same sorts of problems when trying to use arecord.

The set-up I have is as follows:

linux kernel: 2.4.23
alsa-lib:     1.0.3a
alsa-utils:   1.0.3
alsa-driver:  1.0.3

I am using snd-ice1724 and I can successfully playback audio over all the
output channels.

However, I too find that my system crashes after approximately 2 seconds
when I try to use arecord with a sample rate less than 48kHz.

Does anyone know a solution to this?  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Kind regards,

David Brookes
