i am trying to record sound with 'arecord': arecord -d 5 file.wav this gives me a file with a size of about 100k. but when i try to play it with: aplay file.wav i get no sound. but aplay works fine with the files in /usr/share/sounds. is there a problem with arecord or aplay? is there another program which is better for this? thanks, tom arnall
