Affects: gnome-media (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
I can't select the device to record from in gnome-sound-recorder, it switches 
back to line-in or microphone whatever is enabled in the volume-control. If I 
enable both (by enabling the mic icon in the volume control) it switches to 
microphone. However, recording with my laptop only works from the "capture" 
device.
I can record once from the capture device and play it back. However, when I 
record more then once, I can't select the capture device again. 
Also, I get multiple device lists after the first recording.

Let me explain this:
When I open gnome-sound-recorder, I can select the capture device. I have (in 
that order) Line-In, CD, Microphone, Phone, Aux, Capture as a choice. I now 
select Capture and click on Record (the button on top). I hit stop after 1 
second or so and click the play button and hear my recorded sound. 
I see "Unbekannt-2" (Unknown-2) in the title (why not 1? - I didn't record 
anything before that). I then click record again and I see "Unbekannt-3" in the 
title, however the capture device switched back to Microphone and it doesn't 
record anything. Additionally, I now have 2 times the devices in that list (the 
above list 2 times in a row), each "Record" more, I get another list appended 
to the list. If I select any device in this (wrong) list, gnome-sound-recorder 
outputs
** (gnome-sound-recorder:8383): CRITICAL **: gst_alsasrc_mixer_list_tracks: 
assertion `this->mixer != NULL' failed
to the console.
Pressing the "New" button gives a new window with "Unbekannt-*" with * being +2 
the one I had before (why not only 1 - probably the same fault as mentioned 
before, but I can now select the "Capture" Device, I have only 1 of each device 
in my device list and recording works. Pressing record again returns me to the 
original problem.
