Hi,


I have a problem with the pcm sound driver for my creative card.  The
problem is when I try to issue the command:
 
         dd if=/dev/dsp of=record.raw bs=8000 count=1
 
The size of output file 'record.raw' always equal to 2000 rather than 8000
bytes specified by the 'bs'. However if I change the block size (bs)  to
<= 2000, the output file then has correct size. Is there any hints for
fixing?
 
The device line from 'dmesg' is:  pcm1 (SB16pnp <SB16 PnP> sn 0x0ffaa040) 
at 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x15 id 15
  
cheers,
wilson
