Description of problem: I have Creative Live 5.1 sound card. It was properly detected and sound playback is working, but I'm unable to record anything using microphone. I have FC6 test1 system with current updates from development repository. Additional info: I had same problem with FC5, and could resolve it only after recompiling alsa-libs from http://people.redhat.com/stransky/alsa/index.html

Could you check the latest alsa-lib from rawhide? (1.0.12)
I'm running with alsa-lib 1.0.12-1.rc1.
There is "alsa-lib-1.0.11-4.rc2" in your log, it looks like FC5 box (kernel, libs and so on...)
This log was created probably by first boot after installing FC6 test1. It was kernel 2.6.16-1.2289_FC6 and alsa-lib 1.0.11-4.rc2. I upgraded the box since then, it is running kernel 2.6.17-1.2437.fc6 and alsa-lib 1.0.12-1.rc1, but it didn't help. If you need more current log file, just tell me how to create it.
If you have the latest upstream version, please report this bug to alsa-project https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/
