[alsa-devel] [PATCH] Bug in aplay/arecord --list-pcms

Hi,

I have just discovered a minor logic inversion bug in aplay/arecord --list-pcms functionality.

Basically, executing "aplay --list-pcms" lists all devices capable of capture and executing "arecord --list-pcms" 
lists all devices capable of playback.

Please find below a patch to resolve this issue.

Best regards

Peter Stokes
