Summary:                    arecord doesn't work in amd x86_64 X2 dual core.
Description: 
arecord doen't work on a amd x86_64 X2 dual core.

examples:
arecord -d 10 -c 2 -f S16_LE -r 32000 foo.wav
arecord -d 10 -f S16_LE -r 48000 foo.wav
arecord -d 10 -f S16_LE -r 32000 foo.wav
arecord -d 10 -f S16_LE -r 16000 foo.wav

all examples must be terminated using Ctrl-c and only the 44 byte header
is saved. 

The soundcard is a 
Multimedia audio controller: nVidia Corporation CK804 AC'97 Audio
Controller
(rev a2)

We tested this problem on a similar pc with amd x86_64 single core with
the same
soundcard and all works fine.

aplay works on both pcs without problems!

We tested on Fedora Core 4 (1.0.10) and Fedora Core 5 (1.0.11rc2)

We need recording on this pc, so we appreciate every help. Thanks.

This command never stops. I pressed Ctrl-C and a 44byte foo.wav was
created.

I've used the root-account for both commands.
