For the record - I have never tried to RECORD on my 7.1 - I only
tried the capture loopback, i.e. I can hear sound from line in
and mic.

Since my friends hear me on Skype, I assume that in my case sound
is converted to PCM, i.e the recording should be possible.

On the other hand, Skype (the version I'm using) is an OSS, not
ALSA application.

In fact, as I recollect it, I was first able to hear sound
using an OSS based application.

If nobody on the list answers, file a bug - that was the way to
obtain from ALSA developers the exact instructions on how to
really hear sound from line in and mic on 7.1.

Good luck,
  Sergei.
