[linux-audio-user] sounblaster live platinum and full-duplex recording (noisy)

   recording seems to be working OK but:

   in audacity when I record the track it sounds OK

   however if I generate click track and record then (the click track is 
playing while I am recording) the recording is really bad (noisy, low 
quality).

   I vaguely remember something about full-duplex on sounblaster not 
being very good, i.e. there's something wrong when using it but don't 
remember what (bitrate being forced to be very low or something along 
those lines).

   However I can't find any information on that subject now (I tried 
google and creative site), does anybody know details and/or have some 
pointers to relevant docs?

   system: debian unstable, 2.6.5 kenrel (with alsa), sounblaster live 
platinum (with live drive).

   TIA
