Yes, exactly. Can you share the command like options you use to get it
working? I just tried "alsa_in -d alsa -d mydevice" and it gave me
awful recording (well, mostly just static).
thanks.

FWIW, I tried alsa_out once upon a time, to
handle a 4-channel-out USB interface
that appears to Linux as two stereo devices. It was a complete disaster. After
booting Jack and launching alsa_out, it took between 5 and 10 minutes before the
devices would synchronize. Before that, constant glitching. Then, if I left the
devices silent for a time, they would go out of sync again after a few minutes.
More glitching.
At that point, I started to feel that was no longer a viable solution to
explore. I (still) wouldn't trust alsa_out or _in for anything serious.
YMMV.

My primary audio interface is an Echo AudioFire 4 and I'll
occasionally use alsa_in to route a (mono) M-Audio JamLab into
Guitarix. It works well enough for that and what the OP was asking
sounded like a similar case.
