Capture works fine on my boards.

Does it work with two channels? Do you use DMA or FIQ? Could you try the
other variant?

It helped me a lot during development to use a tool like memedit
(http://www.pengutronix.de/software/memedit/index_en.html) to show a
register dump of the SSI/Audmux units of a working setup and a non
working setup. Usually the differences showed quite fast why one was
working and the other was not.
