I get yelled at by someone on this mailing list everytime I say this but if you are using KDE go to the Control Center->Sound & Multimedia->Sound System->Start aRts soundserver on KDE startup and uncheck that box. Then try to record, usually that is the problem, aRts just gets in the way and screws things up.

Yep, or crtl+escape brings up ksystem guard, highlight artsd and hit "kill". I have found that arts gets in the way of a few programs. One is many midi, and a few other - TeamSpeak2 intermittantly. you can kill it and see if it doesn't help with your problem. It's easy enough to restart.

<SNIP> I got rid of aRts and then I had no test sound. So... is there something else one has to load for this to work, finally? ...CH -------------------------------------------------------
