I am using the snd_pcm_pause API in my application but it is returning error: Invalid argument.

This indicates that the driver (or some PCM plugin) does not support pausing.

I checked whether the pause functionality is supported, using snd_pcm_hw_params_can_pause() and it returned me success.

This is a bug. What device name did you use when opening the device, and which driver are you using?
