Comment 1 for bug 288269

I should add that playing sound in totem or audacious works perfectly. Recording in "GNOME Sound Recorder" doesn't work but I'm not sure whether that ever worked (I probably did though?). In gnome-sound-recorder I get this huge CPU spike when I start to record and when I press stop the CPU just keeps spinning on 100% CPU for around 30 seconds before the STOP button even paints itself back as "unpressed" again. The recorded sound is longer than the recording and completely silent. I got "Capture" as the only selectable device in "Record from input" in the sound recorder UI.
