I can play CDs through the sound card fine.
I can play *.wav files from elsewhere using wavplay or
play, and they sound fine.

If I use wavrecord, and then wavplay, I hear a
slow-mo version of what I recorded.

Then, if I cat /dev/dsp|audio > /tmp/test.au
and then cat /tmp/test.au > /dev/audio|dsp the
playback is even slower. I'm assuming since playback
of other wav files is fine, the problem is with recording.

Examples:

Any ideas why "play" seems to work fine, but
"record" is messed up?
