On another note: it would seem like a simple

recording start with the first non-zero sample. I have been
completely unable to make head or tails of the manual page
descriptions of the arecord options presumably intended for that and
have found absolutely no setting that would not either drop quite more
than just the initial zeros, or not drop anything at all.
I'd also like to prune trailing zeros at some point of time. arecord
does not seem to have options for doing that, I guess.
Well arecord is more of a debugging tool and a demonstration of the ALSA
API than a full featured recording app. Check the list archives, I am
pretty sure this was discussed not long ago.
Any keywords? I skimmed the subject lines from the past few months
and don't think I hit anything obvious.
