Summary:                    Capture happens only on one channel
Description: 
When I am playing a CD, if I capture the sound output via the capture
channel OR the CD channel (amixer output attached), the captured sound is
only one one channel (the right one) and is very distorted.
The audio plays normally in stereo on the speakers.

I have the same issue.  My kernel is 2.6.14 with Con Kolivas ck5 patch. 
nForce motherboard with intel8x0.... does not work, capture happens on one
channel... tried every mixer setting.

Same issue here, plus a few others on the MythTV user list have the same
symptoms after kernel and/or ALSA dirver updates.

Playback works fine
Capture only gets one channel (Left).
I can monitor the 2ch audio fine but when it gets recorded through Myth
(or LiveTV which is also a capture and record process) it loses its right
channel of audio with plain old analog 2 channel output.
NO digital AC3 used here (yet)

I have gone through the alsa setup with a fine tooth comb. it looks
correct.
plus all audio and video apps outside of MythTV play back work correctly.


I have tried every mute/capture setting using a couple of different
mixers.
The problem persists.

There are other users that have reported the same issue.

What other debugging can I do?
I can send in amixer scontents, but I have enumerated all options.
