Hi list
I just gave away my UA25 to my son because I had a pci port on a
computer and this old but capable ice7212 based sound card lying in a
closet. I remember it even worked a couple of years ago in Linux.
Anyway - now it doesn't record. It plays ack fine, but I am not able
to make it record. This is on Ubuntu natty with KXstudio desktop and a
multimedia kernel. I've tried both the special mixer Envy24 control
end the later version. Even tried alsa mixer, but I cannot for the
life of figure out how to get a signal into the computer.
Everything looks good in qjackctl - 8 inputs/outputs etc.
Does anyone actually use this any longer? Any hints??
All the best

There was an issue sometime ago with ice1712 cards and pulseaudio. I
don't know whether that applies in your case.
I've got the same card and I just loaded CentOS 6. Mine appears to work
OK but pulse is hosing up everything else. I can run through JACK and
direct to ALSA with Audacity but all other sound is hosed. Anyone know
how to kill Pulse?
You can edit the default pa configuration to let it know what to do with
all those channels (pa points a finger to alsa as the culprit, alsa has
never changed things to fit into the pa world, sigh...). An example of
what I did to /etc/pulse/default.pa for our Delta66 ice1712 based
soundcards. Works fine with pulse.
