I've had no problems with my soundcard working with any apps, but a friend of mine who is used to Linux was setting up a FreeBSD box, and he asked my why the following doesn't work on FreeBSD. Apparently it works ok on Linux. cp /dev/audio0.0 foo.raw cp foo.raw /dev/audio0.0 When he did it, he said he could make out part of the recording, but it was very noisy. When I tried it on my machine, I couldn't make out any of the recording it just sounded like static. Should it work? Why doesn't it? I don't have any problems with any software that uses the sound card.
