Um, you get static or silence? If "static", my guess would be driver or
software endianness issue, which is the most common cause. If silence, I
would guess a hardware issue, although the fact that other sounds are
getting through the card is strange. Perhaps the SC is damaged.

it's worth trying without artsd. artsd always causes me trouble.
