[alsa-devel] recording problem in beagleboard-mcbsp

[noman pouigt]

Problem: not able to record with any of the devices
in beagleboard-xm.

Analysis: userspace is stuck in snd_pcm_readi function
and kernel space i don't see snd_pcm_update_hw_ptr
function being called.

Checked the I2S clocks and they are perfect and recording
data line is moving based on the data. I am able to do playback
though.

I am using below command to do recording. Do i need to add
additional switches?
