I have a USB headset, and to get recording I remember I had to specify
some IECxxx format and pick just the right speed (I think it was 48000hz
16bit). Pick anything else and it did nothing. It has been a few months
so I don't remember the setting for sure.
I think ekiga just worked with the headset, but many other programs
needed to have the right options selected.
