I managed to test arecord and it works with the following as follows:

1. Run alsamixer and select LINE_IN in the Capture element

2. Record with the following command line:

arecord -D hw:0,1 -d 10 -f S16_LE -r 44100 -c  test.wav

3. Then listen test.wav on your PC or in your board itself.

The sequence above works fine.

Anyway, I will submit the patch I sent earlier as it prevents the
system to get unresponsive.
