I get:

"arecord -v -f cd -D plughw:0 file.wav
Recording WAVE 'file.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz,
Stereo
ALSA lib pcm_params.c:2135:(snd1_pcm_hw_refine_slave) Slave PCM not
usable
arecord: set_params:939: Broken configuration for this PCM: no
configurations available"


To disable p/a, I selected alsa in all sound prefs.  The ALSA webcam
driver is also selected for "sound capture".  I then did "sudo killall
pulseaudio" as well as "pulseaudio -k" for root (sudo) and normal user.

A file.wav was not created.

Cheers,
